Hi there

Just checking OpenServo and openservo Here are the same folders right. If there are would it be better to do something so that these only one as it's slightly confusing.

Hi Bren,

Yes they are the same folder. One is a symlink to the other.

There is a reason that there are these two folders. When the OpenServo domain was on an NT based system, the folders were not case sensitive, and the instructions on the website were written in many different cases.

Now we are on a Linux based hosting platform that is more picky about the cases of the URLs. The symlinks are to provide backwards compatibility for anyone that might have CVS already set up.

I think it may be about time to remove this symlink, and leave the one "OpenServo" folder in place.

Thanks for bringing this up, as we can make it a little easier to understand.

Cheers,

Barry
