This kind of concern is why some of us at the hackfest had suggested the idea that this system could work with any existing shell account over SSH. For example, if I use GNOME, but I'm not a GNOME contributor - I might have a shell account with a hosting company like dreamhost.com or something like that. If the local storage is git (which is possible, we control the client side with the software), if you scp or rsync the .git directories you've got 'version control' without needing to install git on the remote server. ~m _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
