Hello, I recently submitted a proposal for workout at FOSS.in. Session time would be very less and at max can be extended to a day. So, I did a cheery pick from suggestions made on list and only mentioned those which I can help with a bit experience I got from working on starmath module. The

Hi, now that we start working with SVN-based CWSes, those module output trees (common[.pro], unxlngi6[.pro], wntmsci12[.pro] etc.) become somewhat inconvenient, as they clutter your svn status output, for example. http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOo_and_Subversion#Ignoring_output_trees

Hi Heiner, Well, this +1 or -1 one in s a kind of vote and you normally don't have to explain your votes. Note that I didn't say We will not do this, I'm the maintainer of this stuff, basta! :-) Just a vote. Ah, okay ;) These are roughly 50 platforms times 191 top level dirs, about 9550

Hi Heiner, [...] Well, you probably already noticed that I'm somehow not very enthusiastic about maintaining these 1 entries. Remember, you'll have to add the properties every time someone invents a new top level directory, which means with most milestones. We have 191 modules so far,
