Maybe I'll look at the logging script in the CVSROOT. Course, I > don't know perl, but why should that stop me? I was just wondering why there isn't a cvs-stable and/or a cvs-ports. Yeah, I know I could get the equivilant with procmail, and I probably will when I get a spare 20 minutes to spend on it, but I'm apparently not the only one interested in keeping up with stable, but not so crazy about wading through everything from the HEAD tree. Would it be that hard to toss together 'cvs-current', 'cvs-ports', and 'cvs-stable', all pointing to the current 'cvs-all' list? If 4.3-RELEASE does end up being another branch, perhaps a 'cvs-release' would be in order as well.... Am I completel off my rocker? .. Well, OK, am I complete off my rocker about _this_? bl -- //====== Brett G. Lemoine -=- ===============================\\ || Info.
