If 10.0 would be one or two years away, I would be OK with that. But we're already in code slush and in 10 days -CURRENT will become -STABLE'ish so I'm worried this change won't have the right exposure. I would be more happy to see it postponed, maybe after proper discussion and testing. I'm not against the change as-it-is, my point is that the project reached a point of maturity where 'judgment calls' doesn't work very well. It's more a matter of "how things are done" rather than "what things are done". > If you still feel strongly about this, contact me in private and we'll > investigate its effects in more detail. I prefer to see a public discussion about this. Maybe you should come up with some evidence that your change is helpful, even after this commit. -- Davide "There are no solved problems; there are only problems that are more or less solved" -- Henri Poincare _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
