I didn't read it that way. You did say: "On the other hand, there are also several NEW INTERESTING FEATURES in trunk:" (emphasis is mine) So I thought you were after putting new features into the 1.2.4 release, instead of purely bug fixes. It was an honest mistake. Not my fault you don't el talko el English-o. Next thing you're going to try to tell me English isn't your first language. I know that's crap. Everybody in the world is born speaking English. I saw that on TV, so it must be true. </gringo> :D > > Then get a 1.3 > > experimental release out in parallel, to eventually become stable 1.4, or > > something like that. > > SVN branch: trunk > It has the bugfixes and all the new features. Yeahbut what I was getting at was an official tarball release of the "experimental" branch in the form of a periodic trunk snapshot. Only a tiny number of people ever check out SVN. Most people use packages. So if we could encourage experimental packages in the likes of Debian Sid or whatever other distro call the evil unstable pre-alpha release version that all the crazy bleeding edge people use, that would be totally copacetic. (Los mucho el cool-o. Not culo. Get your mind out of the gutter.) What I'm trying to get after is more people testing experimental things before we release with gobs of bugs that don't get found until after, and don't get officially (in a stable release) corrected for untold months. -- D.
