[TiLP-devel] Reviving this list, tracking CVS

[Julien B. <jb...@jb...>]

Hi,

I'm sending out this mail to the list to determine whether the 7 or so
subscribers are still alive :)

Romain and I plan to begin using CVS extensively for TiLP's (and TiEmu)
development by the end of the year[1], as we intend a port/partial
rewrite to GTK+ 2 (this affects the Linux/UNIX part of TiLP, but may
affects other ports too).

Basically, I plan to setup the SourceForge CVS so that it will send
out a mail containing the CVS log[2] for each commit to the repository ;
this mail would end up on this list.

As this could generate quite a couple of mails on a good day[3], I'd like
to know if this could be a problem for any of our current
subscribers.

Please reply to the list if it could cause you any trouble. However I
don't expect the CVS mails to generate a very high traffic on the
list, so don't be too afraid :)

This list has been quite unused for the past years (2 messages only
!), we hope it will become active in a couple of months.

We'd like to see some applications around TiLP, mainly variables
editors and such, which would bring the TiLP framework to the level of
the TI-Connect in terms of features.


Thanks,

JB,
Debian Developer maintaining TiLP packages,
TiLP for OS X maintainer,
CVS guru ;P

Notes :
-------

[1] "by the end of the year" means sometime after (probably)
mid-october or even later, time for Romain to let the dust settle on
his job etc... :)

[2] CVS is a development tool tracking changes in the source code,
allowing to rollback changes if needed and helping to track bugs
down. The message will contain a summary of the changes that went in
with the commit.

[3] You won't get dozen of mails every day.
