Dear Geert,
basically all of your proposals are good. Just go ahead :-)
Zitat von Geert Janssens <janssens-ge...@telenet.be>:
* GNOME2_STATUS: this file was originally used in the migration effort to
Gnome 2 (during the GnuCash 1.9.x releases) but rapidly replaced by
proper bug
reporting. As the port to Gnome 2 is quite some time ago, I don't think this
file still makes sense. Can I remove it ?
Yes.
* src/backend/postgres: IIRC this backend hasn't worked for years and will be
superceded with the dbi backend. Keeping it around for academic reasons
shouldn't be necessary, svn history can always recover it. Can this
be removed ?
* Same thing for contrib/pgsql-1.8-import.
1. the pgsql backend which it targets no longer works and will be replaced
with the dbi backend
2. the dbi backend comes with conversion routines between file and db
=> This script is clearly obsolete. Remove ?
Yes, and yes.
* src/count.dat, src/count.gplot, src/count.sh are in the src
directory. Don't
they rather belong in util or in contrib ? They are not related to
building/developing gnucash so they don't seem to make sense in src directly.
Moving them out of the way would reduce the clutter IMHO.
Yes.
* src/valgrind*supp and splint.h. Similar to the count* files, they are not
normally used for building GnuCash, but rather only for debugging purposes.
Wouldn't it make sense if they went in a separate directory, eg util/debug or
contrib/debug or src/debug ? This may have implications the the makefiles
though so perhaps this may not be a good idea.
If possible, a separate sub-directory would indeed be better.
* gnucash.lsm. I learned that this is a datasheet for the "Linux
Software Map"
(http://lsm.execpc.com/). It is however ancient (entry for GnuCash 1.4.9, of
1999 !) and GnuCash is currently no longer listed on LSM. Questions:
1. do we care to be listed on lsm ? If so, I'll update the datasheet and
mail it for inclusion. Otherwise, I'd suggest removal.
I don't care, and I don't think any of the current developers care as
well (which might be the reason for the outdated file). Can be removed.
Thanks!
Christian
