2. ABS move to rsync. There was some talk regarding moving ABS away from cvsup, towards a more generalized scm agnostic solution such as rsync. I had a proof of concept abs implementation using rsync functional, and sent patches to *someone* (memory is foggy..maybe it was Dan?). Is this still something on the general todo list?
You sent patches to me. Last status report I mentioned that we're waiting for 3.1 as it should split out abs into a new package, allowing us to make these changes at the same time.
http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=abs.git;a=summary git clone git://projects.archlinux.org/abs.git abs Anyone want to take this on? It really isn't a high maintenance thing. It has been split into its own repository now, and anyone can take it and run with Eliott's idea (which I'll give a +1). It really shouldn't be too much of a burden on anyone, and you get that awesome feeling of leading a project (even if it is small!). I'm willing to help out, but my "full-time" duties will always tend to be with pacman so this might not get as much love from me as someone else could give it. -Dan
