Hi Thilina, The current plan was implemented earlier to enable both the convenience of the people who are managing docs and to minimize the effect on others when they checkout.
But if people think, following is the correct way, I have no objections for that. But remember who ever putting the links will have to have multiple branches in his/her working copy. I hope the one who will be building the site will be able to manage this without much of a trouble. Anyway, +1 for the proposal. Since most of the people have already +1'ed this, I assume *no one* will complain about this. -- Chinthaka Thilina Gunarathne wrote: > +1 for the Deepal's idea... > > So here's the plan.. > > Let's get rid of 1_0 directory as the first step..
