Yeah, it's my end of the day. Thanks anyway for the discussion, because 
discussion is good than none, even not smoothly!

Kindly regards,
Kai

'Quite much' is an overstatement. Beside one mail you sent in january, 3th, 
there was no discussion about it.

Not that is is a big problem, though, I just wanted some clarification.
I'm not per se opposed to the crzation of a branch, I'm just asking for 
clarification. As I said, creating a branch for such a thing is a real problem 
for those using an IDE. But still, it may be a good thing to do.

Frankly, if it has to become a separate tool, I'd rather ask for a new repo to 
be created, as we have done in Fortress : that let you work easily on various 
projects without dealing with the pain of switching the branch when you have to 
work on some parts that are not in the branch or in the trunk.

Don't get me wrong : this is not a philosophical discussion, nor is it a blame 
whatsoever, it's mainly a way to address a potential issue beforhand. At the 
end of the day, I would say : 'whatever works'.

It's just that this morning I saw some Jenkcins failure on this branch, and I 
told myself : 'uh-oh, why a branch ?' and I tried to check if it was a good 
idea, a bad idea, or simply something that has to be accepted, with the small 
inconveniences that comes with.


Also don't underestimate the double language barrier : you are not a native 
english speaker, I'm nt either a naitve english speaker, so
*many* sentences and words we both are using my be misintepreted... This makes 
it difficult to communicate, but we have to gate use to it, it's not a problem 
that can be solved magically ! (When I was a kid, I thought that soon enough we 
will have soime 'mind reader' machines that will automatically translate in 
perfect native language whet someone else says in his/her own language... Seems 
like I'll pass away before I will see these kind of machines !!!)



Anyway, keep going with the good work, and let's go with a branch, if you 
thinks it's the way to go !
