Wow - this looks really good :) The main criticism I have from a developer point of view is, well, CVS. Enough said. Please please can we have an official git mirror? It makes maintaining out-of-tree patches so much easier in the long run, and therefore much more likely that we can pass the patches back upstream. (On a separate note, if I go to Downloads -> Getting Started and click on the "AnonymousCVS" wiki link then I get redirected back to the front page rather than to a page giving information on how to access CVS) ATB, Mark. -- Mark Cave-Ayland - Senior Technical Architect PostgreSQL - PostGIS Sirius Corporation plc - control through freedom http://www.siriusit.co.uk t: +44 870 608 0063 Sirius Labs: http://www.siriusit.co.uk/labs ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
