Re: [stellation-res] MySql

["Mark C. Chu-Carroll" <mcc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The MySQL progress sounds fantastic. Thanks for all your work!

The coding guidelines are intended to mean that you should merge the latest 
changes from the repository into your workspace at least every couple of 
days. It doesn't mean that you should check in that frequently. Especially 
when we're using CVS, which doesn't let us have useful personal branches,
checkins only make sense when a set of changes are fully stabilized - so 
there's no sensible way to insist on any kind of regular checkin schedule 
without dramatically destabilizing the system.

Send us the patches when you feel that they are ready.

	-Mark
