There's no mention of supporting external developers/users that have subversion external links to the Boost subversion repo. How will people that have their internal development stored in subversion with references to Boost be supported? Will they be left out in the cold once svn.boost.org goes dark?
svn.boost.org doesn't go dark, I think. It does, however, stop getting updated.
Which is practically equivalent since it wouldn't get updated with releases. Personally I would schedule it to go offline at some point (perhaps in 2014) so that we don't have to worry about the maintenance of that resource.
Or will their be an equivalent subversion read only bridge they could use (after adjusting their references)?
No, that would be unreasonable, IMO.
I pointed out how there's already a zero effort working bridge.. So I'm curious why is it unreasonable? -- -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
