We have some bigish imports on the drawing board (gcc-2.7.2.1, ncurses,
nvi, etc) that might cause the people getting ctm deltas MAILED to them
some pain.
It's been suggested that the exising ctm-{src,cvs,ports}-cur mailing lists
be converted to "slow mailout" and a seperate set of new "fast, all at
once" lists be started.
Gary Palmer has written a nice slow-delta-mailout backend for the ctm
delta generator which should do the job nicely.
It defaults to 2 100K chunks per hour, that's 2MB per 10 hours. Is this
too much? Too little?
The current configuration won't mail out a delta that's more than 3MB,
perhaps lowering that would be an alternative.
Does anybody have particularly strong feelings about the parameters for
this?
(Watch the reply address, this is crossposted..)
