Anita has posted an [RTC] note with the patches to the devlist. She had a question which I'm reposting it here for relevancy.
A lot of patches for the m2 migration were reviewed and committed into the now dead-1.2 branch (old trunk). This work should now go into the new 1.2 trunk. So the same patches are being re-submitted. Should they now be subjected to the new RTC guidelines ? Cheers Prasad On 5/24/06, Bryan Noll <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
