I've heard at least one grad student who was there mutter that it never worked :-(. That's not to say that the ideas couldn't be useful... regards, tom lane

Cohera is dead. They changed their mission from mariposa to other things long before they kicked the bucket. The remainders were picked up by peoplesoft. If you really want mariposa, you'll have to pick it up from the university code if it is available and go from there to make it work. elein On Tuesday 01 April 2003 12:24, Tom Lane wrote: > Moritz Sinn <moritz@freesources.org> writes: > > does anybody know anything about mariposa > > (http://s2k-ftp.cs.berkeley.edu:8000/mariposa/index.html)? > > why did they stop the project? > > I've heard at least one grad student who was there mutter that it > never worked :-(.
