The problem with taking them out now would be that it would be pretty
hard to detect any errors and bugs that get made, by keeping it up and
running we would ensure that there would always be a working version
on the windows side, while the linux/SDL part gets added. Meaning we
would simply have a working test-case if things gets changed. Sure
once the SDL port is up and running itself taking out the DirectX
stuff might be a valuable option.

Yep, until there is something up and running I would simply let it how
it is for the time being, reorganisations and cleanup can be done
later on. Priority should be to get it working first, not to
over-organize it into something unworkable.

Strategy that I used in other projects was pretty simply, those who do
the work and can work better with cvs write access, get it. So before
any one gets CVS write access sending a few patches to the list first
would be a good idea.
