no, the devel list is for development issues, ways to solve existing or new problems (but not what they are), i18n issues directly related to code, and so forth. > devel snapshots will be best-effort-stable, ie you will never break > things to allow you to make leaps and bounds? i'd like to think that if we do, we'll let people know. tho this doesn't always happen, i try to let ppl know if i do such a thing myself ... but yeah, some of the guys (not me, its too hard) use cvs evolution for their daily mail, so they prefer it to work always. we sometimes use branches and the like to test radically new code a bit before it goes in as well. its best effort stable, but things could change, such as menu's and keybindings, and maybe file formats, at any time. there could be known bugs that aren't fixed for some time (annoyances rather than things that instantly crash on startup), and generally most such bugs go into the bug system which is the best place to put them since they wont get lost forever when people forget about them for a day. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
