Re: [AGG] Agg repo and docs

[Phil E. <pel...@gm...>]

Ah. For some reason I looked under the "CVS browse" which points to the old
repo. (update: It may have been me following this link
http://www.antigrain.com/cvs/index.html)

> I guess only a project admin can change this, and I'm not currently a
project admin.

I think somebody should - I know there are lots of downstream projects
using Agg, but even so I was beginning to believe that there really had
been *no* changes since 2.4.

> Are you asking whether there is documentation specifically about changes
made since Maxim abandoned the project?

No. I can understand that there is unlikely to be more documentation added
since that point, but all of the "live" parts of antigrain.com suggest that
there has been nobody around since 2007 (
http://www.antigrain.com/news/index.html) - but this mailing-list suggests
otherwise.


Is there appetite to update the information at antigrain.com? If so, and
nobody has access to the server, then there is always the possibility of
using other hosting services such as those provided by sourceforge or
github etc.

As I said, I'm not trying to make work for anybody, I'm just interested to
see whether updating the documentation of the project (to include details
of the BSD fork) is something which anybody wants to see done.

Cheers,

Phil
