How do you propose to get rid of these three issues: >> - The approach in matter of code design is not the same >> - The approach in matter of user interface is not the same >> - The approach in matter of licensing is not the same. I do not see any benefit in this merge if this just about trashing things -it will be, because apart from the historical common base (1 line of code nowadays) and the main purpose, there is nothing common- apart from saving the face of some people that made damn unexplainable decisions when they had several way more important issues to deal with first. > The main valid reason why this is welcome is that it will lead to a > better product, and it is worth the effort. Work duplication is only > good for proprietary software, like our common competitor SourceForge. I'm happy that both KDE and GNOME exists, and as matter of fact I'm a wmaker user... So I have nothing against some work duplication, if it brings different products. It does not mean that I'm not in favor of collaboration, like KDE and GNOME people are trying to do now. But frankly, the only reason we are talking about that is completely unrelated to Savane and Gforge: it is just because savannah.gnu.org is in dead-end that this issue is brought, because some people like to make decision but are not here to do the job and ask others to cope with it. I think there isn't much to say apart from that. I'm not interested in dealing with others persons mistakes. -- Mathieu Roy +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ | General Homepage: http://yeupou.coleumes.org/ | | Computing Homepage: http://alberich.coleumes.org/ | | Not a native english speaker: | | http://stock.coleumes.org/doc.php?i=/misc-files/flawed-english | +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ Savane-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/savane-dev
