I'm sure you could cobble up a Perl/sh script to be run when you commit something, that would place an entry in a .calendar file X time in the future (2 weeks? a month? choosable per-commit?), and have calendar run out of cron/.rc daily to remind you to merge stuff. Or some sort of massive 'shared circular whiteboard', where merges bubble to the top over time for someone to do. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Unix Systems Administrator | fullermd@futuresouth.com Specializing in FreeBSD | http://www.over-yonder.net/ FutureSouth Communications | ISPHelp ISP Consulting "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
