Hi, I just found out these discussions on the release-team list, to which I am not subscribed:
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/release-team/2008-August/002395.html http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/release-team/2008-August/002433.html My questions are: 1. Is /trunk/kdesupport going to be no longer recommended to build KDE SVN? I mean e.g. on the techbase page, http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4/Prerequisites#kdesupport Any plan to update that page to no longer recommend to checkout /trunk/kdesupport? 2. What is the difference between a "tag" and a "branch" ? I seem to see a lot of overlap between /tags and /branches. 3. So what is the "tag" that I should create for version x.y of eigen: is it /tags/eigen/x.y ? 4. We are about to release a beta version of eigen but the 2.0 final will have to wait about 6-10 more weeks. Shall I still create a tag as soon as possible? /tags/eigen/2.0-beta1 ? Or wait until 2.0 to create a tag? 5. After we create a tag does that mean that we can do whatever we want in /trunk/kdesupport/eigen2 without risking to break compilation for other people? This is related to question 1. As long as we tell people to use kdesupport, making tags is rather pointless.
