RE: [Jargp-general] Creating new Def classes

[Tauzell, D. <Dav...@Rx...>]

Hi Dennis,

My sourceforge account is 'tauzell'.  I'm quite busy at the moment, but
I'll find some time to make the updates.  I can add DateDef and FileDef
definitions too.  They are quite simple and don't add any external
dependencies.

Hi Dave,

I noticed I hadn't responded to this on-list. I think the scope change=20
is absolutely the correct thing to do. If you want to make the change=20
just email me directly with your SourceForge account name and I'll add=20
you as a developer so you can do this.

The DateDef and FileDef classes also sound interesting. I'd think any=20
parameter type extensions that don't add too much additional code should

be fine. I'd prefer to see the core library kept reasonably small just=20
to make sure it doesn't become unwieldly.

Several other developers have expressed interest in extending Jargp.=20
I've suggested they hold discussions on this list to arrive at a=20
concensus, but so far I haven't seen anything going on.
