Another thing that might be handy in CVS is the web site. I'm planning to change things to use a template (probably using PHP) so that the pages are easy to set up and everything stays consistent.

It's a reasonable requirement! Second, at Cygnu^H^H^H^H^HRed Hat we tag the tree before making a branch. I suspect because it makes it easier to pinpoint what went into a branch (the kind of information you'll only ever need if you didn't tag the tree). This is how we do it: cvs tag ken_tylers_53c7xx_changes-branchpoint cvs tag -b ken_tylers_53c7xx_changes-branch Remember to be at the top of the tree when doing this. Jesper |

You can split off a branch (cvs tag -b ken_tylers_53c7xx_changes) and cvs upd -r ken_tylers_53c7xx_changes And then work with the repository as normal. Your commits will not disturb anybody else that checks out the trunk. If the changes are stable enough to go into "public" you can merge them into the trunk. Of course, if somebody wants to work with your changes, he can checkout your branch, too.

I'll put up the current 1999 installer, - I ordered the 2000 CD a couple of days ago so I'll have another one soon/eventually depending on whats needed. Do you want two installers on sourceforge ?

I've just realized I forgot to commit arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile ... If anyone wants to test it before I can fix that, please add apus_pci.o in the appropriate place.
