It wasn't delayed at his request. We sat in a presentation room with no preparation at all do decide on a DVCS. That is not how I environ a BoF. We discussed later in another room, but as I didn't ask for the BoF, I didn't do any real preparation. In the end there was no real decision to be made. PS: As a BoF was planned, I asked if a few Bazaar devs could be available for any technical questions, plus to check with GNOME developers regarding Bazaar (to ensure it is ok). This is the reason they were there, it wasn't thought up at Canonical. Bringing this up now as I heard some people made other conclusions. > 2.

The reason you can't is that I don't trust it. You could change svn:author etc for any revision. I don't like it... such changes could be mailed and so on, but I don't think people will notice. Meaning: affects security. Now that you imported using Git it still isn't the import that I would've done. Meaning: not everything under your userid, correct timestamps, etc. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
