The next time *anyone* get's the urge to commit "kludges" that'll be changed in CVS - PLEASE CREATE A BRANCH IN CVS! You're changes are completely counter to the eventual design of the NewsSource and will be removed - I'm probably going to just revert to the version before your change. If you don't know how to create branches, please read the manual: http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_5.html That way the working CMS code can stay up-to-date and the other code can continue without effecting development. > Dan, I need to know the status of user-session management.

There are *publically available* archives of this list and this list should be kept to simply development issues - and *not* GDC webpage issues. The CMS backend is the backend we're using - it is *not* the GDC webpage. The GDC webpage is the setup we are using on gdc.wpi.edu. |
