Hey all

Mike:
Theres no policy (or have not been) on committing through patches. I am not
fully aware how that functions. Your welcome to commit ur changes. I am not
a believer in very strong rules as to run a project - if u have made some
changes then I trust they are good.

But if u have some other ideas on how to do it, I like to hear.

Anyway that reminds me of another subject. I think it is important to create
some junit tests for the project. That will also help in testing if changes
breaks existing code etc.

Kevin:
I will be glad to hear ur comments. I am aware the cvs structure is not very
good...   When I first started the project I had no clue about package
hierachy etc.

cvs structure:

everything is under 'src', which was the initial name I choosed...  almost 3
years ago. '

under src:

external (contains libaries and should ofcourse be named 'lib' or similar).
Unfortunately I started naming my packages lib.xxx when I started the
project (as mentioned I had no clue), so the existing 'lib' folder contained
the code for a long time.
net.x.x   contains the code in the package hierachy. Should probably be
placed by itself under 'src'
web contained a webpage the project had once.
gifs contain all images used

Anyway....   Your welcome to 'refactor' it perhabs by creating a whole new
root folder.

Stig
