Subject: RE: [oic] RE: interop advisory, example - SVN Limitation
Hi Dennis, > 1. ABOUT TAGS > (...) I had been thinking of tagging the versions of multiple advisories > included in a particular compilation that represents approved work for > us. There might be both kinds of tagging, actually (...) Probably, although some tools might not like this: Advisories/0001/tags/v1.0 Advisories/0023/tags/v1.3 .... Compilation/trunk/Advisories/0001/tags/v1.0 Compilation/trunk/Advisories/0023/tags/v1.3 (both 'tags' and 'trunk' in the Compilation path) So that would mean carefully copying the tagged Advisories to, say Compilation/trunk/Advisories/0001/v1.0 Compilation/trunk/Advisories/0023/v1.3 And once we're happy with that: Compilation/tags/201001 > 2.

Indeed, SVN doesn't care about "tags", "trunk" etc... that's a convention. Some tools may warn you when checking in on a "tag", but there is no way to totally prevent it unless one sets immutable bits on the filesystem level > (...)

At certain intervals, we can just grab the whole lot of approved advisories, add specification boiler plate, basically saying "this is not a spec", approve it as a CD and have it published on the OASIS docs site in HTML... That's probably the way we should do it in order to get started (...) > We can certainly begin to organize SVN on the assumption that there might be > working-copy snapshots for capturing immutable sets whether or not that is > accomplished.
