Most of the time its a 'name not declared', etc. It would be nice to have replica branches (e.g. CVS -current -stable) so I can still track the "bleeding edge", yet, maintain a stable environment. Any ideas on this? Don p.s. I went to a lecture, recently, on the analysis of TCP based on fractal patterns. The speaker was from AT&T Labs. I am wondering if any of that research was initiated before the split with Lucent (I havent had time to read the .ps...), and, if so, is there any theoretical application for generating new calculations and improvements to streamline cross-network communications?
