The CVS is accesible to anyone, and already many people builds from the CVS instead of waiting for an official release (understandably, I might add). We don't receive complains about that issue, so it must be either a non-problem, or at least quite easy to circumvent. > It seems like this point has somehow totally disappeared from > our discussion. No. What seems to be disappearing from this discussion is this collection of facts: - not many people builds on Windows - nobody's complaining about the line endings (but you) - we're trying to do a release and your counterarguments are: - perhaps it could hypothetically be a problem for someone - we can "fix" it, so let's fix it - I don't think it will break anything Excuse me if I don't find them compelling. (Yeah, I know I'm simplifying your arguments; what are strawmen for? :) /L/e/k/t/u
