# Since we can't use CVS to maintain long-term branches, we have to # stop doing that. With the next release of 2.1-stable (which will be # numbered "2.1.5") the 2.1-stable branch will be dead. Hurraaayyy!!! :-) # We will not # resurrect another -stable branch in its place, as previously planned, # and all development will take place in -current as it did before. We # may do short term branch development leading up to each new release, # but nothing like the 15 month run of the 2.1-stable branch! This has # simply been a nightmare and -stable has, at most, one or two more # months to live. # # In the short-to-medium term we'll probably go back to our old model of # freezing 2.2 periodically and trying to get it released. Or will it be a short-term "release" branch in CVS? -- With best regards -- Andrew Stesin. +380 (44) 2760188 +380 (44) 2713457 +380 (44) 2713560 "You may delegate authority, but not responsibility."
