Some consensus should be arrived at on how revisions should be set in the
10.7
tree relative to 10.4-EOL/10.4(aka 10.5). For example, take the package foobar
which
in 10.4 may have...
foobar.info with
Version: 1.0
Revision: 1000
foobar-x86_64.info with
Version: 1.0
Revision: 1001
Jack,
Many of our package maintainers will now be faced with trying to
maintain a package across several distributions, and in cases where
there doesn't need to be a difference, the maintenance is easier if
the foo.info files are identical.
So generally, copying the same version, revision,

We don't *always* have to share files. In the case of xmkmf I plan to
create different versions for the different trees. I'll probably put
the Distribution labels there just to remind myself what they are
intended for.
