Are you saying that *all* changes to the trunk should also be made to your branch? Yikes!
No, what I meant (which seems again to have been expressed badly) was that *I* or anyone who cares about the branch being up-to-date to apply the patch to the branch, too. It's not an option - with the recent Ken's explanation on how we vote for changes - it's the only feasible way to go on, imho. It might be more complicated than it should really be, but what else could we do? It was just a proposal and if you think it's not appropriate, that's fine, but please propose something else or we'll end up with nothing but a lenghty discussion with no outcome at all. I don't think we want it - not me. Let's think about people who aren't committers? Are you implying that they cannot contribute to the project? Can't we work for a while as they - the community - have to? It's so good to read so after many advices like - 'contributing to a project is as simple as creating a JIRA issue and attaching a patch'. I think it's been said many times to people who asked how they could contribute with less experience in open source projects. Now they read it's not the way *we* can work. Interesting.
