The mounting type (sync or async) is controllable easily by the local site, so I think we should specify that too. I'd be in favor of sync, but I'd be willing to be talked into async. The position of the obj file (whether on a separate drive from the sources) isn't easily controllable, and the lucky ones who have the option shouldn't be penalized by being unable to report results, so I would require that information be part of the results, but not constrained to be one way or another. > > -- > Steve Passe | powered by > smp@csn.net | Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD > > > -- ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 3.0 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
