[xmlWiki-developers] HW1

[Radu D. <rd...@ly...>]

Hi, guys.

I agree with Abhi and Arnaldo to split "the old guard"(I, Abe and Arnaldo), one in each team.

As I said before, I prefer to work on group no.2(version and changes control) since I spent all my time with CVS as version control.
Please let me know who would like to work with me in this HW.

Let's plan on meeting on Jabber tonight 8PM CST.

Thanks.

Radu
