We went over all of this on a Cygnus internal list months ago.

Rob's repository on sourceforge is nothing but our own dejagnu.
He hasn't added a single change in the fourteen months that he has
had a separate repository--he's just imported changes that have
been made at Cygnus.

More importantly, Rob's repository is _still_ an unsanitized tree
that he copied from Cygnus when he left.  A Cygnus person should
get on bmoss/krk to get this resolved -- both bmoss and krk said
they would follow up with it quickly, but nothing has changed on
the sourceforge repo.  The repository, as is, is not acceptable
for public consumption.  If nothing else, contact VA and get this
project pulled.

I would certainly not cooperate with this repository until the
Cygnus-internal, customer confidential, information, tags, and
infrastructure is completely stripped.  He essentially needs to
throw away this repository and start over.  It should not be too
difficult; as I said earlier, he hasn't done anything of substance
on his fork.

After his repository is free of confidential information, I'd still
not bother coordinating with him unless there was someone actually
doing something in that repository.  But that's more of a judgement
call.


Anyway, as for our local repository on sourceware, last I heard,
changes to dejagnu are considered a free-for-all, with possible
review or oversight by Jim Wilson (he volunteered) if someone wanted
to talk with someone about a change.
