Re: [Scidvspc-users] Project merge !

[Mario L. <mla...@gm...>]

Hello Steve,

Yes Im in the scid list too and I was reading the discussion...

Well Im a dev too, so for me the most easy easy way for the merge is:

- isolate the actual outdated scid code and stop his couter in 4.3 (?)
- create new merge main thread scid+scidvspc with new counter 5.0 
(maybe?)

I think your code can retake the name SCID because its a fork and most 
zero bug code. And in the website create a note about the historical 
development of the code. With the daily use the users will forget the 
old SCID or they can fork the 4.3 version...thats the opensource world!

Do the inverse: add the patches to the main scid line will take a lot 
of time more, more hands involved in the merge (I think the project 
cant allow that) and we cant see progress in some time...

My suggestions and sorry for my english...


Saludos / Best regards
