I think keeping this data around is a good idea. Besides the technical reference reasons a given developer might have, I think there is a good case that can be made via the evolution of conformance in a legal sense. Let's say vendor comes along and says 'this code is stolen, reversed, whatever', we've not only got the code in revision history but we've got a clear example of how 'original' and non-compliant large parts of the system were and how the evolved. Its kind of like saying 'if there is tainted code somewhere, then why the hell is the system not perfect by now'. We would be able to point to another source of history showing its evolution to perfection. -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo _______________________________________________ Ros-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.reactos.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-dev
