Re: Fw: [ws-rx-editors] CVS

Paul,

I believe we can. The BPEL guys are doing exactly that.

My understanding of how we were planning to use sorceforge CVS was that 
we would use it as a repository/versioning system for the editors. 
Nothing would ever be released on sourceforge (similar to bpel). All 
"releases" would be on OASIS's site. Since sourceforge requires us to 
select a license to create a project, this issue came up.
