It's not GPL, BSD, or any other Open Source license. This entire BitKeeper discussion is totally worthless. We're not gonna change. Anyone here want to give up cvsup? Or kick away from a terminal addiction to ctm (and believe me, those ctm'ers are real happily addicted). The answer is no. Face it, it's *possible* that there are better management tools than cvs, but it's for darn sure we can't do better than cvsup/ctm. This discussion merits dropping, at least until someone rewrites cvsup & ctm. Don't hold your breath. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@picnic.mat.net | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (Solaris7). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
