if i understand correctly, it is planned that NIMS maintains essentially a fork of pubman - i.e. no single code base is going to be used by pubman at MPDL and at NIMS. i think this would be a problematic state of affairs, in particular regarding the less-than-perfect support for merging offered by svn. my experience when working with branches in svn was that only frequent merging is going to keep things maintainable and from what i gathered, this is not the strategy here. so i recommend either to merge both branches frequently (i.e. not only after each release) or let NIMS work on the pubman trunk as well.--Robert 17:58, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
