Again, I am requesting a CVS tarball so I can set up a subversion repository. I will set up a trac installation so people can see how the documentation and issue tracking would work. I will also look at branching for the 0.18 release, and look at recruiting someone to help maintain that branch and generate point releases.
If, within the next few days a CVS tarball is not forthcoming, I will look at just importing the current CVS tree and moving forward without having the change history. andy > What Brad has said here I have learned comes across all walks of life. > I mean think when you first get a new job - would you ever say to > your supervisor 'ya know - i dont think we should keep doing this like > this - lets just swtich over to everything i say'.
