A merge would pull the plug from that constantly growing fork problem. Having two CVS repository is much different from having one repository with a mainline tree and a crowd of patches against it. A branch and much more a separate CVS does have the habit to develop much on his own unless you go the two-side pain (plus the one that does have the task of merging) of permanently syncing them. Regards Alex. PS: Why not merge all that stuff in BitKeeper or alikes? I dont want to say CVS is outdated, but maybe it can have some advantages if such a merge happens on a new platform. PS2: sorry if my comments are outdated to that respect... _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
