<i>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; On Sun, 13 Dec 1998 20:46:21 +0100 (MET), Petter Reinholdtsen &lt;<a href="mailto:pere@hungry.com">pere@hungry.com</a>&gt; said:</i><br>
<p>
Petter&gt; I beleave a centralised version control system (CVS) would speed up<br>
Petter&gt; SANE development and make it easier to "outsiders" (me) to follow the<br>
Petter&gt; current progress of SANE.<br>
<p>
Petter&gt; I suggest the following:<br>
<p>
Petter&gt; - A CVS server with write access to the ones currently maintaining<br>
Petter&gt; the source, and read access to all<br>
Petter&gt; - All change to the source generate a mail sent to a new mailinglist<br>
Petter&gt; (<a href="mailto:sane-cvs@mostang.com">sane-cvs@mostang.com</a> ?).<br>
Petter&gt; - Every day a source snapshot is extracted, wrapped up and made<br>
Petter&gt; available on FTP<br>
<p>
Are you volunteering to run and maintain this? If the regular<br>
developers express a strong interest in this, I'm willing to do this.<br>
However, I'd want to keep the list of people with write access very<br>
short. Not to prevent from people from contributing to SANE, but to<br>
ensure that all submissions are reviewed by someone who has<br>
demonstrated a longstanding committment and understanding of SANE.<br>
<p>
Petter&gt; Any comments? Any reason this has not been done earlier?<br>
<p>
Lack of necessity? Note that SANE is very different from other<br>
projects because it is primarily an API. If you work on<br>
backend/frontend X, the need for having the latest and greatest<br>
version of backend/frontend Y is virtually non-existent.<br>
<p>
Petter&gt; BTW: Someone should add december to<br>
Petter&gt; &lt;URL:<a href="http://www.mostang.com/sane/mail.html">http://www.mostang.com/sane/mail.html</a>&gt;. :-)<br>
<p>
Thanks. I thought I had done that, but it seems to have slipped<br>
through the cracks. It's fixed now.<br>
