While conceptually that sounds very simple, an SVN repo that tracks a CVS r= epo=20 is very complicated. One of the most complicated parts of the FreeBSD src= =20 repo being in SVN is the SVN -> CVS exporter. The main issue is there are= =20 operations that don't map 1:1 across both repos that have to be dealt with = by=20 hand. I wasn't proposing that, I think area51 is just a place to check in=20 experimental ports. The merge back to FreeBSD has to be done by hand. The main difference to me is by running it on a PC-BSD infrastructure box I= =20 can just set it up today and have it running and usable in a few hours. =20 Punting it back to the FreeBSD project....by the time it's all sorted and u= p=20 and running it will be spring of 2011. :) =20 =2D-=20 Thanks, Josh Paetzel Director of IT, iXsystems Servers For Open Source http://www.ixsystems.com --nextPart1480745.tcOtldmJNQ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJM4UHVAAoJEKFq1/n1feG26VYH/jap2J90V+e41McvINnwp2Ne 9fHfsyiJwHLsX/t+hK89hFtCX1ivz91M1oX+eYP0L1eModeD18jCd/1lK3xmR7tJ +YUwZoCvV3l5f/HhnRUY1+8YBNQ1cEIAZBlTu2a07NsVXuAGuVDh37c/sJmRyE+p SjkEKizw6tPSG+gsFteTcHuDJhdgNKefKG3a9w/5PXFOqW7wNljn1mWitPwIIhCZ zXcca+zDMiTp3QQ/zmkXfLNQt2UwM5lm3/ZFa5zf+AmPnqnyi0ItPtv6XzVRKhcR u/I7G8GM0vmXMlCIHHDTe5TdmockjS5358IOL8LSybc17b6qZqYIkzIFw583osE= =KDOG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1480745.tcOtldmJNQ--
