[PD-dev] cvs admin question ...

First off, you should _always_ post to the pd-dev list before making  
any changes to that file.  Period.  That goes for any of the files in  
CVSROOT.  Its too easy to seriously break things by editing those  
files.  And you should have confirmation from all those involved that  
its ok.

Second, "tmusil" is not an existing user.  If Thomas wants to maintain  
iemlib in the sourceforge CVS, that would be great.  But just locking  
everyone out of the iemlib directory is not helpful to anyone.

For iemlib, I imported the IEM sources so that they could be part of  
the build system.  This was discussed on this list.  I put on access  
restrictions so that people wouldn't mistakenly commit to iemlib there  
since its maintained elsewhere.  If someone wants to work on iemlib in  
the SourceForge CVS, they can make a branch, then submit patches.

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of  
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an  
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps  
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the  
possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of  
it."
