The main intent was to both improve on the clumsy open-source patching process and to safely experiment with allowing OS contributors to make live changes to a part the code base. If this goes really well, then I'd expect them to start allowing live commits even closer to the trunk. I wouldn't think about viewer 2.0 as a new product and Snowglobe as a dead-end. Instead, I'd just look at 2.0 as the trunk diverging from Snowglobe until (hopefully) merging back in a few months. Just how that's going to happen without giving poor Merov a heart attack is anyone's guess. -Melinda _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/SLDev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
