Although it may appear confusing I am inclined to check in patch 3 to the 1.3-branch and patch 2 to HEAD. I'm going to do that within a few days unless somebody raises objections.
Why do you think patch 3 is superior to patch 1? (Just) Consistent naming?
I think that patch 2 is superior to patch 1: <http://www.ginac.de/pipermail/ginac-devel/2006-April/000950.html>. Also, patch 2 is superior to patch 3. But patch 2 can only go into HEAD, not into the branch. I'm not so sure whether patch 3 is really superior to patch 1, but I thought that if patch 2 is going into HEAD, then patch 3 would be more appropiate for the branch because of reasons of symmetry.
Upon some more consideration, this appears to be rubbish, I'm afraid. I'm not going to change the semantics of the template container<> from release 1.3 to 1.4. So, patch 1 is going in to the 1.3-branch and a slimmed-down version of patch 2 is going in to HEAD RSN. Thank you for being skeptical. -richy. -- Richard B. Kreckel <http://www.ginac.de/~kreckel/>
