I myself was weaned on Emacs. As far as CVS interfaces go, I always run my CVS session from my shell.
Creating a new tool isn't redundant if it offers new features, and in this case I am going to be addressing a couple issues. 1. I deal with certification for safety-related products. IEC 61508 requires pretty strict software lifecycle practices. Among those are a tight SCM process and change tracking (bugs). ASMAI takes its own bug handler and integrates CVS to create a base SCM system. 2. ASMAI is being designed per IEEE 12207 and IEC 61508. This means that a project being audited for its tools usage can point to ASMAI and state that the tool is compliant to these standards, as well as beig coded per MISRA C for safety. 3. It's fun to try new things! I would love it if someone had created a tool that blended bug tracking, version management, build generation and project requirements all together with a simple shell interface. Why not? Stallman wasn't crazy when he started Emacs, but I know a lot of people that said he was stupid for bothering ; ) Take care. -----Original Message----- From: Kaz Kylheku [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 3:08 PM To: CVS-II Discussion Mailing List Cc: Christian Bryant Subject: Re: OpenSource CVS-related project Needs Developers!
