Haha, understood . . . just subscribed to dev.

I'm talking primarily about Exhibit, but also about Simile AJAX and
Timeline.  I guess I was just wondering whether you tend to be pretty strict
about making sure all tests are passing after every commit to trunk or
whether you're willing to break the code for a couple days to experiment
with something.  I'm trying to balance the priorities of contributing
patches with minimizing downtime.  ;)

I'll probably just do the prudent thing and try to use stable branches/tags
in production and keep my playing around with trunk separate.

Cheers,
Pius

Have you subscribed to our dev list?  You'll get a better idea of the
flow of code by watching commits go by.  The stability really depends on
which particular part of the repository you're referring to since each
individual project generally has its own trunk/tags/branches and
development cycle.

It's really your sense of priorities - would you rather play catch up
with every commit, or would you rather risk falling behind / only
play catch up when a new feature/fix catches your fancy?  On projects
that may or may not see a lot of development, depending on the weather,
phases of the moon, etc.?

A better sense of the specifics of your plans might get you a more
straightforward answer :)
