I guess the number of peopling using HEAD of 2.1.x is pretty high. I estimation bases on several talks with people during GT, they all have been using 2.1.x. > If I get enough positive feedback about the current state I'm happy to > prepare a release of 2.1.11 in December. Thanks for offer Carsten, I will help with testing (based only on samples, though). When we at 2.1.x, I have been wondering about freezing this branch. In a fact, it's already almost dead but lots of people are still using 2.1.x. Therefore I would like to hear your opinions on calling bug-squash effort. I mean: I would prepare an announcement at our site and announcement to the user list calling our users to vote for issues they would love to have fixed. The rules of the game would be simple: everyone is free to present favourites on users list and encourage others to vote on their issues. Then, if there is a decent number of volunteers, everyone could pick up an issue from the top of the most voted issues list and fix it? Of course issues having a patch already could go in first. After 2.1.11 I would like to close 2.1.x branch completely. WDYT? -- Grzegorz Kossakowski Committer and PMC Member of Apache Cocoon http://reflectingonthevicissitudes.wordpress.com/
