Subject: [jl-volunteers] Tree breakage


Paul,
    Ok, Matthew will be making a LARGE checkin tonight that totally
reworks authentication and how modules will interact.  This won't affect
the www directory.  Also, the trick to deleting things in CVS is to
delete all the files in that directory, then run an update with the
prune empty directory flag set.  This will delete that directory from CVS.

Everyone else,
    The tree will splinter tonight and tomorrow (Paul, please no longer
than Wed. morning).  We're going to see some major new features and some
re-org of the www directory for themes and module addition.  After this
week we should see the rest of the issues for 0.7 fall into place and
people looking to extend JLCP should be able to do so easily.

-Matt
