I still think the best way forward will be to separate each module into its own git repo. That makes it much easier for others to fork and creates a simpler directory layout. I'll have to go back to the archive of our discussion, but I think all the people who actually committed to the libwin32 repo were in favor of this, and I think their opinions count the most. :) > Tags are a bit funny, because they were stored in > 2-level folders in svn, so the effect in git is > a bit strange :) I actually did the svn to git conversion 3 times locally myself (back when we were discussing it), but never managed to get the tags converted correctly. I still want to do that, but I ran out of time. > I guess you could just clone, and we all > could start forking from there? > > I've also successfully imported Win32-API history > alone, > > http://github.com/cosimo/perl5-win32-api/ I would suggest that you'll work on that repo instead of the big libwin32 repo for now, and one of us should eventually convert the other modules indo individual repos as well. I'll get back to you once I've actually looked at your new repos on github. I'm unfortunately way behind on keeping up on the libwin32 stuff right now, but things should soon become better (famous last words alert though). Cheers, -Jan
