Having just gone through the two branches, I'll note that the Launchpad PQM version of loggerhead is *not* 100% appropriate as a Loggerhead trunk. It has a small handful of very site-specific customization for Launchpad. Post notably (I think this is adding a link to https://help.launchpad.net to every page with a menu): === modified file 'loggerhead/templates/menu.pt' - --- loggerhead/templates/menu.pt 2008-08-13 17:33:41 +0000 +++ loggerhead/templates/menu.pt 2008-08-14 22:45:52 +0000 @@ -13,6 +13,8 @@ <li><a tal:attributes="href python:url('/files', clear=1); title string:Files; id string:on">Files</a></li> + <li><a tal:attributes="href string:https://help.launchpad.net/Loggerhead; + title string:Help">Help</a></li> </tal:fileview-active> </ul> </tal:menu> If you specifically consider PQM to be more stable than the existing trunk, and want to manage it from there, that's fine. But I think we need to be aware of some things like this. I also don't know what this means for users that *today* are running loggerhead trunk. (Peng on IRC comes to mind.) I noticed you didn't get many responses via email, perhaps because the original message was long.
