It is your opinion, but I repeat myself, that the SER code maintained by us will go further -- I don't think that someone can claim that we didn't do the job for our code (the only discrepancy is some last-minute adds in xlog (to print avps) - will be committed on unstable very soon with the new color patch). The cvs was created just to ease the maintainance. The patches would be a nightmare.
Maybe I've misunderstood you: is this only a parallel "stabilized" version + some features or is it a full fork (do you intend to fork unstable also)?
It is fork for the code that we changed (acc module, usrloc module ...), in the future may be other that they do not find the path in SER. We will maintain and upgrade our part of code from SER continuously.
I have no problem with another stable version, what worries me is fragmenting the development for unstable (which is the place where major changes are made).
I see no fragmenting there -- the situation is the same for SER as it was before. For example, there is no fragment for acc module, it will be maintained by who did it till now, adding what he considers necessary there. But we came to meet a lot of requests of why the acc patch is not included in the CVS (it was fully backward compatible and had new features requested by many SER users) and we want to promote _more open_ approach to contributions to all parts of code. The acc patch was sent on November 1, 2004. No real response (neither negative, nor positive) from maintainer to the submission since then ... are you aware of a good reason?!?! ... should we wait just about (or more) half an year for each contribution?!? I will not do that anymore!!!
