Why we still the way i understand it is that we (ought to) have one -stable (which is now on the 2.2. branch) and one -current (now the 3.0 branch). Releases or snapshots can be done on either tree, in which case the version number makes the distinction. I hope we will never have a situation with three main branches as it was with 2.1 2.2 and 3.0 about this time last year, since it must have been a nightmare to handle. cheers luigi -----------------------------+-------------------------------------- Luigi Rizzo | Dip. di Ingegneria dell'Informazione email: luigi@iet.unipi.it | Universita' di Pisa tel: +39-50-568533 | via Diotisalvi 2, 56126 PISA (Italy) fax: +39-50-568522 | http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ _____________________________|______________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
