My take is that it's just too dangerous to do now, especially since we should already have released XE 2.2M2 and we're late. I don't think there's any value in taking unnecessary risks at this point. Personally I'd much rather wait for XE 2.3M1 (i.e a few days since we'll create a branch at the end of this week - I also need that branch to continue my work on references which I have also stopped last Thursday in order to not cause more unnecessary risks). So I'd be -1 right now since I don't see a compelling reason to do that now. If everyone else agrees, I'll reconsider my judgement and move that to a -0. Thanks -Vincent PS: If you really want to start committing it now, we can easily do it on a branch and merge in a few days. The merge would probably not be hard. _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
