I just have some doubts about the pertinence of adding lots of platform nobody uses to *develop* on... Let's take for example the Solaris platform. Trac more or less works there, but in case of a problem, users are on their own. Adding a Solaris build would perhaps be informative, but if something goes wrong, we couldn't really do something about it. Same goes for the various Windows Server 200x [Ry] versions someone requested earlier, and I think same goes for the various BSD ones. Bottom line: don't bother to propose adding a new configuration unless you're also volunteering to actively support it. I think that will help a lot fighting the combinatorial effect ;-) -- Christian --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
