Math!

Hello...yes it's been insanely busy!!

The past three weeks I've worked nearly every day and on some days a good 12 to 14 hours.  There's been two projects that we've been trying to complete and I'm sorry that I havne't had time to be sharp and get on top of emails in this way.  So thanks for your patience Math.  I had gotten your original email and read it, but thought to respond when I'd gotten some time.  Suffice it to say that I let it end up sinking to the bottom of my inbox and then it was out of sight for me (and out of thought).

To pick up with your questions...

You had mentioned the concept regarding possibly transitioning to Sourceforge.  It's both interesting and compelling.  Personally...as long as there's great exposure for the project I'm not "tied" to any open source repository per say (and not biased towards hosting it as Sun). 

To speak to your clear comments on the cumbersome nature of using CVS and the huge number of projects to wade through on the Sun server.  I agree.  It's totally prohibitive when setting up a CVS repository location and then loading in the project.  This I've obviously not been a fan of.  I know that Sourceforge a while back migrated to SVN which personally I like quite a bit.  I also understand the motive behind your comments regarding tagging before commiting your changes. 

So now what to do in response to the thoughts you've thrown out...

I guess first off...in the absence of the of rolling the project into Sourceforge yet...(that possiblity being a future direction to hash out more on)...would you like me to tag the codebase for the current 2.1 M3 code set?  Now I haven't created a tag in CVS for the project yet (I've obviously done so plenty of times in other settings...just not using the CVS instance that Sun hosts).  Can you provide me the tag name to match your suggested naming conventions moving forward?  I can then create the tag, email you to let you know it's complete and at that point you can proceed whenever you have opportunity.

Thanks again for your great patience. 

~Todd

Hi Todd,

Just wanted to say hi and know what's up. I had no answer to my last email so I figured you must be very busy these days... When you get a minute, could you have a look at it and let me know what you think? Also, I would like to check-in my changes but I don't want to do it before a tag is applied to the code and for that I need you input.

Thanks and hope to hear from you soon!
