I liked the idea someone brought up before of having them in a different repository from either of the two, but probably located at fd.o. I think it's a good idea in part because it will help enforce the compatibility requirements in our minds, and then we can just tell people "Check out the DRM from CVS" rather than "check out this subdirectory of (DRI|Mesa) CVS and use this special build command." I don't think Mesa makes any more sense as a home than DRI, since both are consumers (and the freedesktop.org X Server is now a consumer, too). If folks are in favor of this, I can work on setting up the repo so that history is preserved. Would we then leave the DRM in the DRI tree there, or remove it and have XFree86 merge from two different trees? Actually, I'm thinking of just moving the DRM out to a separate module in the DRI's CVSROOT. -- Eric Anholt [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
