I apologise if I am repeating anything that has already been said. I haven't read the whole thread since as most people can imagine there are more important things to do.


$ tar -czvf emplode-src.tgz ./src/emplode
$ cp emplode-src.tgz /home/ftp/pub/sources/emplode-windows/.


Yep. But /home/ftp is behind our firewall so it won't help. I'm also sure that absolutely everyone in our development team is quite capable of working out the correct tar parameters.

The situation is far more complex that that. There is a lot of shared code between all our projects and we can legally only release some parts of it. Hence, last summer we split the libraries into ones we could release and ones we couldn't and made sure that emptool had no dependencies on the ones we couldn't. Since then the waters have got considerably more murky.

There are also non-technical problems such as licensing to consider.

Anyway, Peter has been looking at this and something may now happen sooner rather than later.
