This is the most unpleasant part about participating in the Plone and Archetypes projects: merging a branch and properly interacting with branches takes unnecessarily long. Plus, Subversion doesn't really help you *at* *all*. Pages like[0] should not have to exist, and you should not have to refer to it *every* time you merge a branch into mainline. 0. http://plone.org/development/info/merging I want to make my intention clearer: *I* oppose to the ITP for reasons that *I* would really like CVS to go away. *I* also live in somewhat of an idealist world. So my emails were supposed to be a statement of my opinion, and as dato already said: if others disagree, and if someone is there to put the work into packaging OpenCVS, then by all means. If I had a reason for posting, then it was so that we had this thread and reached an agreement after enumerating reasons that back up the final decision. -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP (sub)keys?
