I should've said jallib 0.5 beta or release candidate was available few
weeks ago.
See: http://groups.google.com/group/jallib/msg/74e07b55636780d8

Well, maybe jallib 0.5 was planned to be released with 2.4l at that time
(that was the case)

I don't branch for beta or release candidate, only for final release. See
later.

What about testing with all 2.4m beta ? That's what they are for.

Interesting, I wonder how could that happen. Any link ?

Can you describe more precisely this "bad mistake" ?

Creating branch is possible, but I wonder if it's really useful. Remember
not everything is taken from SVN to put in release package. TORELEASE tells
what to embed. Once upon a time there were "unvalidated" and "validated" map
in SVN, acting like "dev" and "torelease". It was too much pain to maintain.
