[kepler-dev] diva fork

[Christopher Brooks]

Ok, sounds good.

I'll jump through many hoops to avoid code duplication, it turns out
that we've wasted lots of time fixing bugs in duplicated code.  It
drives Edward and I nutz when this happens :-)

If you want, you could create a branch in the current ptII/diva tree
and work from there.  I have no problem with that.

Diva is an interesting case for us development-wise, since it is a
package we use, but we are not the primary developer, though Steve and
Edward have made lots of contributions.  We were not very happy to do
the split, but diva was not our package, and it seemed for the best.

Unfortunately, it seems like not much is happening with the Diva
project, there has been only one check in to the master diva tree on
embedded since 1/13/04.  There was a bunch of activity October
through January though.

    Hi Christopher,
    
    Our plan is definitely to merge these changes with your tree.  I just 
    need to get the code cleaned up a bit first.  We want to make the 
    scroll bar changes a  configurable option so different configs can 
    choose whether to use them or not.  I'll hopefully get this cleaned up 
    by the end of the week then I'll talk to you about merging it in with 
    your tree.
