I knew that already ;)
but as i understand luke's proposal it can be done without modifying any help-patch anyhow.
Yes, I think it is a good idea and should be included. I am not sure whether it is a full replacement for having the embedded link in the patch, but I am willing to try.

Hey, http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/tags/pd/ I just added tags for 0.41.0 thru 0.41.2. Those tags for 'pd' are a bit of a mess, so I would like to propose cleaning them up. First, I think we can ditch the 'pd-' prefix since they are already in a

folder called 'pd'. Second, I think we should use the very standard '.' as the separator between numbers.
hmm, miller's versioning scheme has been consistent since (i think at least) pd-0.34-0 so i don't see a reason to change branch-names to just another standard just because we can. instead i think branch/tag-names of Pd should follow the versioning scheme of Pd as closely as possible.
Pd is the only software that I have ever seen that uses "-" to separate the minor version. Not only that, but the "-" is a very common separator used to add a package version to packages (like Debian, etc.). Pd's "-" causes problems there. I see no advantages to keeping the "0.39-3" format.
You guys could use feet, inches, pounds and pints since you are working with Americans, but I think you'd rather use what the rest of the world uses: meters, grams, and liters.
- I think we should probably also clean up the "pd-0.39-3",
"pd-0.39-3-again", "pd-0.39-3-oncemore", , "pd-0.39-3-really" to be just the right 0.39.3.
hmm, i don't know why these branches are named like that. one could argue that the person who created them did so on purpose (though probably not)
"0.39.3" is not defined by the tag. The tag is instead marking the code that represents 0.39.3. If you read the commit comments, those tags are because there were problems. Therefore "0.39.3" should be
- do we need the test versions listed in the tags? There are only
a couple existing anyway.
again, as these branches had been created, why should we not need them?
I am fine with leaving these if someone wants them.

Hi everyone,
I am actually writing an external which manipulates some audio buffers, and for this purpose I use garrays (i.e. garrays names are actual arguments of my external). The problem is that in order, for my external, to retrieve the data contained in the buffer, I need to reinstantiate the object and then it works just fine. There is here something that I am missing about the way Pd handles with garrays ...
Any help appreciated
