That's a really good thought, I'm adding it to the interface list

An associated deliverable I'd love to see is a set of XML DTDs for describing log entries, etc. If the API could output to a standard XML format, then each app could avoid parsing all the text output of each SCM tool. --- Weber, Lance <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Following some interesting discussions on the Maven list, I'd like to propose starting an SCM abstraction project, tentatively named Scamp. Proposed Goal: Scamp is a Source Control Manager abstraction layer. It provides a standard interface to SCM systems allowing common source control operations such as checkin/checkout, labelling/tagging, reading changelogs and diffs. Initial design goals: -- expose a stable SCM interface contract for consuming applications (Maven, Ant, etc). -- provide extensible infrastructure for specific SCM implementations. -- configuration driven implementations -- file system independent -- supports multiple projects, multiple/distributed source providers __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
