Hi there Andrew, I have transfered a few accounts from sourceforge to
GNOME Cvs. I while a go I asked who wanted a account and I remember two
persons asked for such a account. I can, of course, always ask for more
accounts. Please let me know if somebody needs a account. 

I think clearing out the sourceforge cvs is a good idea. However, we
will have to file a request for that.. you can remove all files but they
will still exist in the Attic directory. You are free to do this; I
think your rights are high enough to ask for this.

Please leave the old gcm directory or make the cvs admins move it to
"gcm-old" or something like that. I dont keep backups of the old version
of gcm and maybe somebody wants a version someday? It's the only gtk1.2
clipboard manager that I know of ...

You are, of course, also free to commit changes to the GNOME Cvs if your
account works (I remember creating a account for you?). This includes
fixes for automake. Of course, always make sure that such changes work
on non-debian platforms too. Debian is great but gcm is not a
debian-only application of course . Such debian-specific changes
belong to your package-patches afaik. I will always notice such issues
as I use RedHat 8.0 for desktop usage.

You asked for the versions of ..... and .... : well I use the versions
shipped by RedHat 8.0.
