I've submitted patches some weeks ago against their CVS tree and I got reply after 3 or 4 weeks. Might be a problem due to the fact that not all programmers touch every leaf in the tree - something similar to what happens in the Linux kernel. It could be better, sure, but I think this is a common problem on FOSS projects where developers are hobbists. -- Lucas powered by /dev/dsp _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
