[netperf-talk] a new netperf-dev mailing list and subversion trees for netperfs 2 and 4

[Rick Jones]

Folks -

I've started setting-up subversion (svn) respositories for netperf2 and 
netperf4.  The Top Of Trunk can be browsed via at 
http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf2 and http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf4 for 
netperf 2.X.X and 4.X.X respectively.  I felt that netperf4 was sufficiently 
different from netperf2 to warrant being a separate repository.

The "tags" heirarchy there will be used to tag specific netperf releases.  I've 
loaded-up most of the previous netperf2 releases going back to revision 1.8.

If you do want to do a check-out. I suggest you check-out based on 
http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf2/trunk  (or netperf4) rather than just 
http://www.netperf.org/svn/netperf2 or you are likely to get _everything_ going 
back to revision 1.8 :)

For more on subversion, and possible pointers to svn clients and the like, start 
at http://svn.tigris.org/  The subversion manual I've been using can be found at 
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/svn-book.html .

If you happen to know more about subversion - which is entirely possible :)  I'd 
welcome your comments and suggestions on the respositories.  One item on the 
to-learn-how-to-do list is creating a "daily" tarball and perhaps zip file that 
folks without subversion can access.

I've also started a netperf-dev mailing list, the archive for which will be at 
http://www.netperf.org/pipermail/netperf-dev/  which has a link to a page from 
which you can make subscription requests.  As with netperf-talk, it is a list 
that will only accept messages from subscribers.  This is an anti-spam measure.

happy benchmarking,
