This would also be a possibility for sourceware.org. A couple of projects have nightly "build a snapshot" activities. As long as the build isn't *too* resource intensive, I don't see this as a problem. cgf ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

We used to allow updates to both and then a messy merge would take place. I stopped allowing updates to the project CVS for ``runtime'' and ``w32api'' because it was easier for me to stop those updates than it was to stop the updates to winsup/w32api and winsup/mingw. I would merge changes to ``runtime'' and ``w32api'' when a release was made. Chris continues to do that merge now, but we can stop that as well. This may reduce the confusion, as the 'w32api' and 'runtime' repositories in the MinGW project CVS are pretty much always out of date (other than when there has just been a release). It has the added benefit of making my life a little easier as well. :) What about keeping the w32api & runtime always in sync with the winsup one ? I don't know if this is possible, but using the sf shell to create a cron update job that daily downloads the winsup modules, and then updates the sf cvs. Not worth the headache. SF may at some point cease execution of the cron process. They have done that in the past.

Quoting Christopher Faylor <me-5HXzsy6HbJY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: mingw is a special case since it doesn't have a project page on sourceware.org. If you all wants one, I'll arrange to give you access to the web site. I think we should look at this. In fact, if you want to move the MinGW site entirely to sourceware.org, I can arrange that too. We can provide subversion or CVS access for any developer and provide you with access to an ftp area as well. mailing lists are also available. We can also provide master DNS for the site 'mingw.org' if needed. I don't have time to move the project; although this would have been most interesting a few years ago. We might would like to take up the offer for the ftp area though. SF FRS is a bit cumbersome. We could then manage our install package with Cygwin's nifty setup program. We could then hide all of the release information on SF and provide a download of the setup executable. And, we'll even let selected, trusted individuals (like, e.g., Earnie) run cron jobs! Or Keith, he's older than I am. ;) If Keith is interested in working the move from SF to SW I'm not opposed.
