Or imagine installing other dependencies (like cairo) from git. That would be a mess. Oh, wait! I think the existing build systems (jhbuild, garnome) cope with the situation relatively well and if not, they should be fixed. And for non-developer(ie. coder) input there really should be a more user-friendly interface anyway, regardless of what SCM is in the bottom (and it shouldn't matter, this is open source right? We can make things work together!). So, push GNOME to SVN now, create something for translators/documentors that they can push changes with and then allow projects to migrate to SCM close to their heart and that fits that particular project. The only weak link left is the burden imposed on the admin team. I don't have an answer to that. -- Kalle Vahlman, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Powered by http://movial.fi Interesting stuff at http://syslog.movial.fi _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
