Yup, I'm all for alternative UGAI's, although I certainly don't want to see a perl version becoming the standard one. But at this time we really only want one version in svn, otherwise no one will work on grid protocols due to breaking things.<br><br> Most of us aren't really perl programmers and as has been said before by one of the developers "I signed up for c#". We need svn to be what most of the developers feel happy working on. I'm also very likely to break Grid protocols/servers over the next few weeks compared to how they are now, and have no plans on changing the perl version. So while I support it and think its a good thing that there is such a version, it really should be in a separate svn. <br><br><b><i>Sean Dague <sean@dague.net></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> On Thu, Apr 03, 2008 at 01:28:19PM +0100, Melanie wrote:<br>> Hi,<br>> <br>> to me, the
