    [greg-dev] new svn branch for multiuser support?

    Martey, List,
    
    this is a pretty good idea! As a matter of fact I have a working
    code-base that does some basic multi-user already, but haven't had
    much time to to work on it, recently.
    
    I'd love to dump into a svn branch, though, so that developers with
    more time on their hand can pick it up.
    
    Unfortunately, the last time I messed with the svn repository I almost
    broke the trunk, so I'd rather leave the branch creation to someone
    with more svn-foo.
    
    Please go ahead and create the branch, and I'll commit my hacks there.
    
     -m
