Hi,
I think there should be some policy on the use of global
cvs tags to the lcsim library. I propose at least one daily
tag, which could look like 050804.
Then say if tag 050804 works fine, and then some interface
change is introduce and tagged 050805, and my code gets
broken by those changes, I know I can use tag 050804 to
continue my development.
Without tags, once one updates one's local area, it is
hard if not impossible to recover a previous version which
works.
