Re: SVN on Alioth?
Is [EMAIL PROTECTED] a private mailing list for members of the alioth.debian.org dpkg project? No. It was meant during the transition from Scott to the band of four people who agreed to take care of the package when he decided to slow down his involvment in dpkg development. It is currently unused and should indeed be removed from any reference. The package development list is this very list. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Ah, no, this is a Sourceforge-like thing where you can put up releases that Alioth serves out. Not horribly useful for Debian, just a feature of the underlying software that Alioth is running. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
