That is a single point of control, not a single point of failure. Axiom has a single point of control, one per branch and one per silver and gold. > When that single person becomes unavailable temporarily or forever, > the project is stalled.

The project was not stalled though because I spent time getting a hundred copies of Axiom built and handed out at the ISSAC conference. The result of this time gained us (hopefully) access to Manuel's work and a few other connections to other people in our target audience. t _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
