What I will mention is to simply omit auto-generated files and either have a Makefile.cvs or autogen.sh to create them.

However, I think a Makefile.cvs should be standard and it in turn can call autogen.sh. > 3- A few guidelines on what to do to make a release.

Good point. I will add that. > > 4- Maybe a few guidelines on how to deal with the project webpage, logs, > screenshots etc etc. Shouldn't that be in another document? It seems to be generally for project maintainers (be it a development project or otherwise). Point 5 is missing.. missing missing! Thanks a LOT for the feedback. It has been very helpful. Any others? Aside from M.Yousif who said there were too many 'musts' in the document that it was distracting ;) Regards -- ------------------------------------------------------- | Mohammed Elzubeir | Visit us at: | | | http://www.arabeyes.org/ | | Arabeyes Project | Homepage: | | Unix the 'right' way | http://fakkir.net/~elzubeir/| -------------------------------------------------------
