I'd suggest base as being the closest match. This is sticky. I don't have an opinion either way about it as long as it's not branded a desktop or server subproject so as to alienate either group. >>- Get a code repository going.

That's why I threw that out as something to discuss. I wasn't sure what our policies were on things such as this. Right now, I think all those that would be writing code (and therefore need CVS commit access) are Gentoo devs (or soon to be). >>- Decide to what level non-devs should participate (mainly, can they >>commit code) > > I vote no. :) A fair vote. If there is an inroad to them becoming devs, that's fine. I just didn't want to see good coders turned away. >>- Complete high(er) level design documents that all devs agree on. > > Good luck. :) Heh.
