I was waiting to start this discussion after SCA 1.2 was out of the door, but looks like you were faster then me. I'm +1 on this, and here is my proposal.
- Continue with SCA 1.x maintenance releases based on the current SCA 1.2 branch. This would be a more stable codebase, and we should avoid big changes that could brake backward compatibility here. - Use trunk as our SCA 2.0 release stream, where we would do the type of work discussed in [1], the cleanup and restructuring mentioned by you on this thread, as well as any other work that the community feels its applicable. Note that my proposal does not exclude merging items between branch and trunk as necessary, but this would probably be done case by case when the community thinks it's applicable. Thoughts ?
