Migrating away from CVS would be a good idea.
I'm not against the idea, but I'm well satisfied with CVS. It's a well known tool, and widely spread. It sure lacks features, but there isn't many developpers committing code (no problem to merge versions), and there isn't more than two active branches (the stable release and the head). I don't mind keeping two local copies of the repository.
Ah, but I want to (for example) run a Debian-archive branch as well, in order to keep Debian-archive-specific things (such as the current situation with OpenSSL, which may or may not be mitigated with a license exception, as I believe other dependanded-upon GPLd libraries need to carry the exception too... I'll check this when it becomes relevant.) I don't think it makes an awful lot of sense to keep this in the main FreeRADIUS tree, since I pretty much expect to be (for the moment) the only one using it. Certainly this doesn't neccesitate the upstream repository to convert from CVS, but it's certainly worth an investigation. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 8th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Pobox.Com Of course Pacman didn't influence us as kids.
