Tag & Roll :)  It's similar, but there's no 'release' till it has the votes.

Ooh so close ^^
So tag -> source code is tarred?
Roll -> source is put on server for testing
-- voting --
Release or no release?

Right - especially people on esoteric platforms.  FWIW - we are also glad
when folks see these notes and take a look at the svn stable branch and try
building from it, so we discover any problems before the tag.

Ok so what do i check out? Trunk? 2.2 branch?

Of course ;-)  The idea is to pick up the release you want, although things
have been in more of a you-must-update mode for a while.  I'd like to see
a release in the next few months that is purely for the fun of getting the
newest features.

New stuff is good ^^ but i remember some 2.0 release where just one or 2 big bug fixes that got released a few months apart and that was kind of ugh i just compile the stuff and all the extra modules, now i have to start over ^^
