We are pretty loose about repository access. But there are some rules
you should know about.

1. Once a set of files has been copied to a release subdirectory please
do not modify those files.
2. the trunk and branches are always available for updates.
3. Stay out of other peoples sandbox subdirectories unless you have
arranged otherwise with the sandbox owner.
4. If a file is strictly for a specific platform then we like to put
those in a subdirectory like platform/unix for example. I thnk most of
the Mac stuff has usually been merged into the unix files but if
something is specific to only the Mac then by all meas create a
platform/mac (or other name) subdirectory to hold it.

Right now I handle most of the *nix development. Mark handles a lot of
the Windows stuff (especially ooDialog), and Rick does most of the
platform independent work. But there are exceptions so ask if you are
not sure about features you want to work on.

Rick and Mark may have other comments on this.
