Rember to check Tim's "patches-49-50" file to compare his original lisk of changes. It looks to me like the only thing Tim missed was to delete the svn:eol-style property from the binary files. As far as I know there have been no patches directly to trunk that are not also in arch axiom--main-1 branch. The only real new work in Axiom Silver is going on in build.improvements. The sooner we get trunk fixed up, the sooner we can plan on merging build.improvements back into trunk and then into Gold. Thanks for you offer to help with this.
