Good idea. We forget that answers are often in the mail archives. There is still the same problem. When developers who use the trunk have any local changes, then they get conflicts when 'svn up'. Anyway, this would be the best time to do it. Developers should have already contributed most changes. -David > This way we clean our formatting once every few months and our releases > are always nicely formatted. > > Now that this work towards configs for the tools has progressed this is > more of a practicle proposal than it was at the time. > > Ross
