[Clipart] Re: chmod 775

[Jonadab the Unsightly One]

Umm, I was just going through my inbox (where my unsorted mail lands)
and found some messages there that didn't make it into my folder of
OCAL-related mail...

I've added an explicit filtering rule for Jon Phillips (and a couple
of other people), but in general, please put the [Clipart]
subject-line tag in any OCAL-related mail that you send me.  It helps
my sorting get it in the right folder where I will see it in a timely
fashion.  Thanks.

I imagine those first two are no longer very relevant now?  (And, I
was almost sure that I *did* make those folders group-writable... but
I can't log in now to check.)

I don't know a lot about cvs, but is it possible you need to do cvs
update first before attempting to check in?

I tend to like making things run under taint checking also, at least
during development.  It can catch things you'd overlook otherwise.

The new versions that I checked in for 0.15, did they incorporate your
changes?  (I did cvs update before making my changes, so it *should*
be okay...  but you might want to check, as I don't know that much
about how cvs works yet, and stuff like moving files is complex enough
that I'm not very confident predicting cvs' behavior.)
