For those who seek the access to the CVS depository, it can be downloaded from the SourceForge's site at the link http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/trn-cvsroot.tar.gz > That said, moving a new repository *back* to SourceForge might be more > difficult.

At any rate, cleaning up the code would be applausible. It'll give a chance to other interested developers who are now deterred by the current complexity of the sources to jump in. Wayne's e-mail address can be found on the trn project web page at the SourceForge's site. All he has to do for granting you the full CVS access is adding your id to the project developer list. I also believe it wouldn't be a great problem for him. -- Regards, | /^^^\ Yury | (| , , |) | | * | E-mail: yury.burkatovsky at telrad dot co dot il | \_-_/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com
