It very well may be cvs still but discussions around this stuff is always best. I don't mind our current setup but it badly needs to be re-organized. I'd also like finer acl's. Right now there's over 70 people that have access to everything in /cvs/fedora/ AFAIK, our needs are simple. 1) Modular ACL 2) email notification 3) Tagging 4) Anonymous read/check outs
5) Authenticated/authorized commit access. In the case that some disgruntled person from say Black Gag Linux decides to figure out a way to take down the Fedora build system because he got a bad RPM last week. 6) Easily documentable. An SCM might be really cool and have a ton of wizz-bangs but if it cant be documented and duplicated easily by a third party.. it tends towards being a burden for systems administration versus a boon. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- CSIRT/Linux System Administrator How far that little candle throws his beams!
