I did not formally vote -1 on this issue. I merely stated my position that I was opposed to storing jars in CVS. Nevertheless, if I had voted -1, as Sam has done, I hope it would not just degrade to -0. That isn't how I understand the decision making process. In fact, I believe this discussion was started in the thread "Jars in CVS". I believe the last entry in that thread was where you replied to me mostly agreeing with what I said :-). I didn't really see any attempts to lobby a change in my opinion. No matter. Let me now formally vote -0. I can live with jars in CVS. I do not expect them to impact me greatly. I would like to wait and see how they get used and incorporated into the build process. I think that at this time the arguments have been heard and most people's positions are known. It does not appear that there will be any change in opinions. I would lobby Sam to change his -1 to -0, not because I think he is wrong, but merely so that we can move on from this. I will think some more about Jon's JPAN idea and Sam's system concepts. Perhaps we can arrive at something with which everyone agrees without duplicating a stack of jars in CVS. Conor
