Hi,

I thought I sent the warning out on thursday but can't find it in my
internals folder therefore the notice:

  We certainly should get 5.3.1 rolling and therefore I'm planning RC1
  on Tuesday evening European time


I'm not toooo used to subversion therefore I'd like some comments about
this procedure:

1) Monday evening branch of a release branch owned by me
   $ svn cp branches/PHP_5_3 branches/php_5_3_1
   Question A: using php as in our tags or PHP as in our branches?
   Question B: can svn merge be used to get changes from PHP_5_3 or is a
               manual merge better?
2) Tuesday: Change the version
   $ vi branches/php_5_3_1/main/php_version.h etc.
3) making the branch a tag
   $ svn mv branches/php_5_3_1 tags/php_5_3_1
4) merge the tag into the PHP_5_3 branch
   $ cd branches/PHP_5_3 && svn merge ../tags/php_5_3_1
   The idea would be that the release appears in the
   branch's history and nothing is being lost
   Question: Does that make any sense?
5) Change the version to RC2-dev
   $ vi branches/PHP_5_3/main/php_version.h etc.


Feedback on this procedure and svn usage welcome. If this doesn't work
out the procedure can be changed for the next release and I guess a RC
is a better test than a "proper" release.
