That's hopefully my last email on this thread. Oliver, You owns your time. So, it is really your call. >From my side, I appreciate your efforts on keep maintaining it. I don't really care if this is done as a separate tree and/or together with dvb-apps, although, except for the scan files, the dvb-apps seem pretty much orphaned for a long time. So, among other reasons, IMHO it is better to keep it forked. In any case, reimporting the files from an external tree is easy. It is equally easy to add a script at dvb-apps and on other applications that would take a tarball of it and copy the files there. We do that approach on v4l-utils, in order to sync it with kernel headers and kernel IR scancode tables, as we do need new headers there during development, and users do need the very latest IR scancode tables. If you decide to keep it in separate, I recommend you to add there some version schema to make easier for distributions that may want to add a package there, for them to track when this gets updated. Also, just like what we do with media-build's "todaytar" target, it may also make some sense to have an script running at linuxtv.org that would create daily tarballs when a new commit is merged there, or when a new tag is added. That would help to have scripts at applications to sync with the latest files. If you decide to either drop the tree or to add such tarball script at the server, please ping me. -- Cheers, Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
