Dear Wolfgang Wegner,

Um... and instead of maintaining several private source trees you should consider poushing your code upstream, so that others do the maintenance for you.
The intention is to do so with my next project at work - but again it depends on how much time is left after sorting out all the low-level hard- and software bugs.
I strongly recommend to include the time for the upstream-pushing into your next project schedule, right from the beginning. Consider it an important quality-assurance measure - where else do you get a large number of highly qualified experts reviewing your code _for_ _free_ ?
Otherwise you might find yourself in a situation (again) where you will have to realize that we never get assigned enough time to do things right - but always to do them twice.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
