When I first read Zac's original email, I was sure that a change was |
| 6 |
required, and I'm sure now as well (I personally find the cache stuff |
| 7 |
pretty clunky). However, I think that a time has come for more |
| 8 |
*radical* change to the repository format. We've learnt a lot of |
| 9 |
lessons regarding flat-file repository management, and our experience |
| 10 |
could result in a new much better system. |

I'm not sure what kind of tree structure exherbo uses, but I'm sure |
| 13 |
there are ideas we could take from there as well. This alongwith our |
| 14 |
plans for moving to GIT, and the tagging need, and various others |
| 15 |
means this is a good time for a "revolution" :) |
