Hi, As an occasional developer for Sage, I have a question regarding to what should be the target release of Sage for a patch. This question arose to me at least twice.
I wrote and uploaded a patch for the latest release, 4.6, of Sage. Then a reviewer said the patch is not applied cleanly to the Sage 4.6.1.rc0, and requested to check the patch against 4.6.1.rc0. Of course, I am happy to do this and thank the reviewer for this. But my questions are: 1. What release should be the target against which a patch should be checked before it is uploaded to the Trac for review? Is it the latest publicly released version OR one of the release candidates? 2. Where is the latest release candidate? I googled for it, and I now know where it is. But is there an official place announced to developers? 3. I think answers to above questions should be included in the developer manual. Are they? If these questions arose just because of my misinformation, then please let me be informed.
