Note that nobody else has chimed in yet, so it's just me being difficult, as usual. ;-) DS> On 04/07/07, Robert Story <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: DS> > If you're really keen to DS> > eliminate one of the the notification directories, what about moving DS> > notification/* to snmp-notification-mib/?

My original intent was to start a new convention of having code for a specific mib in a directory named after that mib. At the time, we didn't have the option to move existing code, or I probably would have. Though then one wouldn't be able to assume that code in mibgroup/*-mib/ was a rewrite, as is the case now.

Have you tried Thomas' suggestion of using zip instead of tar? I'm interested if that works. If so, I'm much more inclined to do that for 5.4.1, and to do any renaming/moving in trunk (and moving everything to some to-be-determined consistent scheme, instead of only dealing with the troublemakers). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
