Hi, let me suggest to create the GRASS 6.4.0 release branch the next days to get started with stability tests. The last release is long time ago and more and more efforts go into GRASS 7 (which is good). Time to get 6.4.0 out of the doors, say, to bring it to our users.
I agree - but do we need to create a release branch in advance of the release? Any development in the 6.4 branch at present is intended for the 6.4.0 release anyway; it's not as if we need to branch off the release to allow development to continue in the devel branch, as all new development is going on in trunk.
I think to avoid having three separate branches (6.4 dev, 6.4 release and 7.0 dev/trunk) it would be best to only create the release branch immediately before 6.4.0 is tagged.
Am open to persuasion though. Paul _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
