I agree this is the major point in all this. Ultimately what we need is a continuous deployment process where we can say "make 1.8.1 build" and it grabs the 1.8.1 branch, fires up a bunch of VMs to build on the different platforms, sticks the packages on the site or server. I have no idea how hard something that would be to setup but I think that is the only way to maintain and deploy "X.X.x" releases. Without something like team members, like Tim said, are going to be side tracked into that release rather then working on master. - Nathan _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
