Last week occasion was exactly the kind that won't make up for a release anyways imho. It's not just an issue of having a way to name it, it's also having the time to make the release. Just tagging is hours faster than packaging, uploading, updating jira, making up a release announcement, a blog, and so on... Unless there is funding backing it I don't really see a patch release happening. I agree that maybe with more projects using GeoTools we might start to see less active contributors interested in backporting the few patches they need for their own project and make a patch release out of it... still a bit skeptical it would happen, but I agree having a way to do that is a good start. Adding my +1 on the proposal page... hum... someone added it already. Ok... Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing. Andrea Aime GeoSolutions S.A.S.
