As I'm sure you noticed it's the file permissions thing I'm most concerned with. I hate retro-actively changing "rules" like this but I think we all believe pre-staging releases is a good thing and I think we all realize having it work properly is in the best interests of the Organization. This will take me quite a while to work on, I'll do it slowly through the next few months. I've been asked to catalog the existing sites, various parties have been interested in us figuring out what the tier structure looks like (knowing which sites are Tier-1, Tier-2, etc.), and so on. So I'll make looking into this part of the whole cataloging effort. I'll try to make it as painless as possible. The extension to omi should be a big help - I was not happy about it seeming like cvsup and rsync were the only good alternatives. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel |
