Comment 4 for bug 1292607

One quick note for Alexey: before we can merge this into the geda-gaf package, I would like to see an updated manpage and a unit test suite for the new program.

Stuart, we already have a plethora of renumbering programs in the tree, and I think we should institute a "one out, one in" policy. In this case we have an (allegedly) fully-backwards-compatible contribution that introduces new features. With proper documentation and a test suite that we can use to verify that the new tool is fully interchangeable with refdes-renum, I can see no reason not to accept it as a replacement. For people who have a particular need for the older version — which is poorly documented and lacks a test suite, I might add — there will always be the option to grab it from older release tarballs.
