Ian Lynagh is behind camp (and as I understand it, Florent Becker is making some interesting contributions as well). It is our hope that camp will become the basis of darcs 3. What exactly this will look like and how we will get there (slowly) will be discussed during the upcoming darcs hacking sprint (17-19 April). > Is David R in Camp? Unfortunately, David is no longer working in the darcs project, or on camp. He has agreed that the "named primitive patch" idea proposed by Ian is the way to go forward, however. > For the second question I'm still unsure.

I think this might help: http://wiki.darcs.net/index.html/NamedPatch The assumed unique ID of a patch is the tuple of its short name, date, author and log, which are represented by the patch hash. The patch hash should always stay the same, but it should not be confused with the file content hash, which changes according to the patch representation. -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
