That is in fact the best solution always. It's all a moving target, some days we can't even guarantee that the current state of SVN is compilable. Trying to get a new X to compile with an old Y from EFL is likely to fail. We do try to make sure that SVN is in a healthy state most of the time. We do make releases, just released a new version of EFL last week, but we don't expect that parts of that release will work flawlessly with parts from a previous release. We do test and try to make sure than all the things we released last week work together as a whole. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
