Hi hackers,

BEGIN RULES
- trunk will be for 11.2, and I create
  http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/branches/SuSE-Code-11-Branch/
  (in 1 hour, at 14:00 CET, so that this does not catch you completely 
surprised)

- Code-11 will be a "side-trunk", the place of (cautious) development
  for SLE11 and its service packs. That is, in sequence, the
  following branches will be created from Code-11, to maintain
  updates that are diverging or backported from Code-11:
    SuSE-Linux-11_1-Branch
    SuSE-SLE-11-Branch
    SuSE-SLE-11-SP1-Branch
    SuSE-SLE-11-SP2-Branch

  Code-11 versions will have 3 components, 2.17.*, and all the other
  branches will bear 2.17.*.*

  It differs from the Code 10 concept in simplifying the decision
  where to commit: 

  * Committing to a branch means a maintenance update.
  * Committing to Code-11 (side-trunk) means development/fixes
      scheduled for later.
END RULES

  Compare to Code 10 ( 
http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=YaST/Development/SVN_branches&oldid=67380
 )
  where *-SPx-Branch is once a place of development and then becomes
  maintenance.

Duncan objected that this scheme creates too many branches and that
we are too flexible in favor of Novell product needs, whereas we
should send YaST on a more independent way:
http://lizards.opensuse.org/2008/11/07/yast-releases-independent-of-opensuse-releases/

I think he is right but we should do it for 11.2 and beyond, not for
SLE 11.
