Given this blunder, your current code, and the rules and procedures for FreeBSD commiters with respect to new code bases always needing to go into -current not -stable and my being already involved and working with you pretty well directly in email that you deffer all cvs operations for the time being. I'll get a set of dedicated boxes set up in back, one running -stable, one running -current and we can work togeather in porting KAME to -current ASAP to produce a correct set of imports and commits to make the next attempt at this go smoothly and correctly. I think the repo misterers might like someone like me looking over the sholders of you after what just happened.... (Yea, Okay, Peter, I know looking over the sholders doesn't alway prevent mistakes, but atleast I can be there to yell out a loud Homer Simpson ``Daoooo'' and stop further damages. :-)). -- Rod Grimes - KD7CAX @ CN85sl - (RWG25) rgrimes@gndrsh.dnsmgr.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
