Re: [Number::Format] Interesting issue in development environment

[Jonas B. N. <jo...@gm...>]

Hello,

Well we could do one thing and that is take a snapshot of what we  
have done so far on sf.net.

Then we could import all of Bill Ward's CVS history into sf.net CVS  
and then re-add our snapshot. This is a fairly well documented  
procedure on sf.net and when we do it we can fix the renaming issue  
and we would not loose much history apart from the commits made  on  
sf.net CVS, which we would have to redo.

It is a long road, but it is doable - I am doing the same thing for  
the Workflow module any day know.

What do you think?
