Not really since they're part of the development process, and tracking their changes in cvs is just as valid... Some of the files could be removed from the releases (aclocal.m4, configure.in, Makefile.am, etc) Makefile.in and configure need to stay as it would be a useless build system without configure and configure reads Makefile.in to generate the Makefiles. So they must stay in cvs, and are optional for the releases. -- Ryan Butler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ADI Internet Solutions
