Oh, oh, let me vote for "implied vendor branch" again, then, so that you can do local branches and checkouts and merges relative to a steadily advancing "vendor branch" CVSup'ed from "the vendor". It would be *too cool* if someone were to cause sendmail, ISC BIND, and other CVS maintained projects from other vendors to show up in FreeBSD as a constantly updated vendor branch. I'm pretty sure the Ports people would like this, too. 8-). Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
