Hi, I'm working on squashing some ugly bugs in tomcat5.5, and right now I've just about had enough with the patch system. I have better things to do with my time than regenerating patches and sorting out conflicts for every little change. I feel that the complexity of the package has outgrown the patch system.
So I'm simply going to make a branch in svn and work in there, with the full source tree and no patches. (IMHO that is what version control systems are for.) Then I will provide the result for review before uploading. (Aaah, I'm feeling better already.) Once this is done I would like to look at Tomcat 6, which is in alpha, but we could make preliminary packages. However I'd like to have proper version control from the start, and preferably a VCS with proper merging support. Suggestions welcome, and also please tell me if you would like to help packaging Tomcat 6. Marcus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
