Well, you can just ignore it. There is a pretty good SCCS in there[*] if you peel away several layers of self-indulgent chrome and features for the sake of it being features. [*]: well, there was at least as of version 1.5.2.2; my brief experiment with 1.7 gave me the strong impression that at least part of the core team had dallying with clearcase[**] [**]:but not, thankfully, at the wire format label. As long as people with the steampunk versions of the code can pull from my sccs, I don't have to care about the new gears, gauges, and lovingly brassoed tubing that have been bolted on top. -david parsons
