Right now, I have a "big patch file" which is a recursive rundown of all directories included in the distribution. If we setup a CVS repository, we'll need to maintain a separate file for each modified file in the hierarchy. Is this appropriate? How does the Apache developers work? Do they have scripts to upload/download/maintain the patches? Since you seem familiar with this, can you setup an environment for the ports? I'll send you my preferred login attributes now and others can do the same... Thank you, Alex.
