As I wrote to Mark in private mail, I felt the need to remove the binaries as soon as possible in order to minimize the window in which people would end up getting them in their trees. The more such people there are, the longer we have to leave the files in the Attic before obliterating them from the repository. > (is this a decree from core?) It was a decision that I made personally, in my role as one of the co-managers of the CVS repository. You know, Julian, I hope not too many more days will go by before you get over this need you seem to have to utter a jab at the core team in every mail you send out. I can't see that it adds anything to the discussion. --- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
