Upgrading libqpe sounds good in theory, but it would have been better to have branched before that. Since we don't have a development branch in Opie, HEAD _is_ the stable tree in this project. Feel free to dig it up in the mailing list archives, if you forgot on what we agreed after merging development and stable branches. > > Opie development may be effectively dead, > > Then why does it matter to you and why bring this up, if you or everyone > else is not interested in developing Opie? Because it is still an important environment option for embedded linux distributions like OpenZaurus, Familiar Linux, and Angstrom. > I am, and I am going to proceed with changes I see fit, otherwise I will > simply start my own project, and make changes there as I see fit. Ok, if you insist on doing these things on HEAD, then a stable branch is necessary. If your planned changes are huge, I recommend starting a completely new Opie repository. It would be a good chance to clean up the build system and infrastructure and remove the core/noncore split. > You don't have to agree with my changes, I certainly do not agree with > all the changes everyone has made, but I did not cause a stink because > whoever developer wanted them in. I don't know how you manage your contributions to other open source projects, but until now this project has been based on consensus. Feel free to dig in the opie-dev archives, major changes have been discussed before they went in. -- Regards, Michael 'Mickey' Lauer | FreeLancer | http://www.Vanille-Media.de _______________________________________________ http://opie.handhelds.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/DeveloperWikiIndex Opie-devel mailing list [email protected] https://handhelds.org/mailman/listinfo/opie-devel
