These discussions are lost on most people since there is no log of them on
the website that you can access quickly.
We really need the "contributing" page, and this information MUST go on the
website, PLEASE, emails are a waste of time down the road... PLEASE put this
on the website.
I am also moving the jboss-user list there as a forum format (working on the
look with the designers) so most the stuff will be on teh website soon.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, take the initiative to flag this in the website

|This is automatically done by CVS.
|It is a little bit weird, but CVS works like this. The branch tag is a
|"floating" tag, it always point to the most recent code on the branch, and
|CVS "floats" it whenever a commit is done on the branch.
|
|When you branch from a main trunk you choose a branch tag name. It is
|"normal" to think that this tag then refers to the branching point
|code, but
|this is wrong. It always refer to the "top" of the branch, ie to the most
|recent code on the branch.
|
|Given this, there is no way to retrieve the branching point code if you
|don't explicitly tag it (with a simple tag, not a branch one), just before
|or just after the branching. That is the purpose of the Rel_2_2_0 tag, it
|points to the branching point.
|
|Was I clear enough ?
|
|Cheers,
|
