Re: [Linuxcoe-devel] Developing on SourceForge

[ed f. <edf...@ya...>]

It sounds like a fairly standard and straight forward
process imho, but I'd like to hear Lee's spin on it
if possible.  Since I'm not in cvs every day a 
cheatsheet/brownbag would be really cool (ie, I
can't think of how to tag files as "stable" off
hand).

Also, is there a "standard" development system, or
should we expect everything to work on any Linux
distribution at any time?
