Ahh ok, I wasn't aware that the stuff in the tree had been changed. I've found that a promotion by three steps felt better than just promoting by two steps, but this is a very subjective thing and it obviously depends on the size of the steps. A good strategy might be to let the decay remain at one, but make the promotion be controllable from the command line. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
