Re: packages and the kernel (long, sorry...)

Hi,

I said last week that I would send some info about CMU's depot
package over the weekend; I got caught up in something else, but
didn't completely forget. The urls to look at are:

http://andrew2.andrew.cmu.edu/ANDREWII/depot.html
http://www.tc.cornell.edu/SmartNodes/Newsletters/1995/V7N2/cynt

Depot allows you to keep all of the files in one package together; it
also allows many other nifty things (like keeping a single copy of
some files and symlinking remote NFS servers to it).
Please do not direct responses to the kernel mailing list as this is
not a kernel issue!

(Note: I have nothing to do with the depot project, despite the
.cmu.edu. I'm merely a satisfied user)

TTFN,

Sumner Hayes
