Hi, It appears that the developer's group, http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets-dev, gets very little readership. David H and Nicolas responded (thanks!)
==>>> David's advice was to move the discussion to the main list (this one). So here we go: * I'd like to start down the road towards obtaining permission to add to the trunk. I'll be making changes to my local copy but would rather put back all changes that are not specific to my sw. What are the steps for obtaining commit permission? My first proposal is that we have a new release of Timeline. ==>> I suggest that we immediately have a new tag, call it 2.1.0 per Nicolas' message http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets/msg/36ccd27838932dbc By creating the new tag, the latest tag will reflect a rev later than any of the previous tags. (I figured this out by running the "Revision Graph" tool that comes with TortoiseSVN.) Several reasons: 1) Currently, the later tag for the Timeline svn tree refers to an *earlier* version of the software than an earlier tag (see below) 2) The current tag refers to sw version 1287 on March 13th. It is now September, and the sw is up to 1539, with a number of changes. My second proposed change is here: http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets/browse_thread/thread/c0... -- rather minor, I'm happy to wait until after you've seen my more substantive proposals. Is anyone acting as a check-in coordinator? With no tests, I'd prefer to have someone looking at changes and commenting (before or after the commit). On the other hand "commiters rule" according to David. ==>>> In lieu of tests, is anyone keeping up with the Trunk and trying out the new commits as they occur? DETAILS Re: later tag refers to earlier software: I used the command svn ls --verbose http://simile-widgets.googlecode.com/svn/timeline/tags To see the dates of the Timeline tags. The last tag reflects EARLIER software than the next to last tag(!). That is: The latest tag, "2.0-on-static-simile," was v1299 on March 20th by David H. That tag is a snapshot of trunk v1267. The next to latest tag, "2.0-before-google-code" dated March 13th actually refers to later code! It is a snapshot of trunk v1287 ==>> Difference between v1287 and today's rev (1539) I think the following worked to determine the changes: 1) Checked out v1287 to a temp dir with command svn checkout http://simile-widgets.googlecode.com/svn/timeline/[EMAIL PROTECTED] timeline_svn1287 2) Ran the TortoiseSVN "Check for modifications" command between the 1287 directory and the current rev. Result: 11 changes to the actual source files. Plus updated bundle files and some docs/examples changes Changes by halcyon1981, gm.marko, Vincent.Vazzo (Hello fellow Timeline fans!)
