Hopefully in some "openafs-contrib" folder in some location in AFS. I'd offer space in one of my cells, but current network policies prevent me from doing that. > Having the tools > kept in one place under source control with a bug tracker can only be > good. Actually, no, its not. People will expect support from OpenAFS for it if they such things are included with the normal openafs source distribution. This could potentially be bad for the OpenAFS project itself as well as companies that offer OpenAFS support. I certainly wouldn't want to have some random utility thrown into source control and then a client saying "its in openafs, we need it working in our environment." <<CDC _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
