They're independant in the same sense that if you write a web site and include links to another web site, that yours will still function if the other becomes unavailable for whatever reason. You can always keep a mirror of the other archive if you're afraid that it becomes unavailable, or like was mentioned in another thread, use 'tla cacherev' on the tagged revision. _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list Gnu-arch-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
