Yeah, my reference to the "blanks update" probably didn't come across quite the way I intended it to. I don't blame David for wanting to comment on that. I was never particularly thrilled with the "blanks update" itself, I just meant it as the most-extreme case of repo-bloat. Whatever you might think about the "blanks update", it's clear that the freebsd project was not crushed by the bloat in the cvs repo. My thought is that a change is either good or it's bad. We would not and should not avoid any GoodUpdate (tm) due to "repo-bloat". -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
