Thanks for pointing out that there are more things going on than I've been keeping up with :-) Sorry for implying that progress had stopped. I was responding to Carlos' suggestion that the drawn-out move to Git was a progress-impeder. And I was responding by pointing out that we said it probably would be a progress impeder. > How much progress do we have to continue to make in order to appease your > worries? Sorry, I'm not the one with worries. This thread started with someone suggesting that the Apache model was inhibiting progress for this project. I don't think that's the case at all so I was trying to respond to that particular suggestion. Greg
