"Off topic"??
Though I agree that CVS issues are *developer* and not *user* issues, the
decision was made a long time ago not to have separate lists for the two
groups. That decision could be revisited, but I would appreciate not being
flamed for using the mailing list as it is currently constituted.
I am trying to fix bugs and add functionality to Maxima, and am struggling
with very frustrating CVS issues in doing that. I have spent hours trying
to understand the CVS documentation and not succeeded. Clearly other
developers on this list have solved their CVS issues, and I would appreciate
their help in this. I would hope that I can count on my colleagues on the
Maxima list to help me with this just as I would count on colleagues in a
co-located work group.
