Re: latest cvs fork problems


Hm, seems to me the name may be scaring people off.  I mean "snapshot".
Sounds painful.  "Snap" sounds like slap and I don't want to be slapped.
"Shot" doesn't sound nice either.  Too painful.  How about calling it a 
"serene image".  Sounds tranquil.  Maybe even inviting!

Egads, That almost sounds serious!  Anyone know of a good course on humor?

Is there some reason you're refusing to try a snapshot?
