I would think that work being done on Dingo, once people think it's ready, should be shared. The usual comments of "don't break the build" apply. I also figure that folks doing dingo work are watching the dingo branch for changes, but it might be good, before a big change, to say something here on net@. > Also, for subsystems such as ip6fw that have no future, how > agressive should we be about nuking them in dingo.

I like cleaning things up, but I'm really the greenhorn at committing so I hope others wil chime in. If it were my decision I would say that the Dingo branch should be the "cleanest" and then we could decide, when pushing to HEAD, how to handle that. Other thoughts? Later, Georgehome | help
