If you're not part of the OS or packaging, then I don't see what bearing this discussion has on you. You ought to be free to do anything you want -- including choosing a source code management system and build environment that supports whatever things you might dream up doing. (And regardless of whether I or anyone else thinks of those choices.) I'm confused. Why is this discussion about SCCS keywords, Mercurial, and Solaris a problem for your project? -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
