Maintaining country-specific code with branches doesn't scale very well. If you add support for more countries, you would need a seperate branch for each, which may become unmanageable. A better approach may be to keep country-specific code on the trunk (in seperate directories or in conditional code), and configure the build system to pick and choose the bits for each country release. I see a close parallel to multi-platform code, which is usually managed in the same way. -Matt _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
