Currently GenericSetup 1.2 is the only version with a maintenance

additional 1.1 maintenance branch would not help us. Therefore
using GenericSetup 1.2 in CMF 1.6 might be the best solution.
But CMF 1.6.0 was released before 1.1, even::
$ svn propget svn:externals $ZSVN/CMF/tags/1.6.0
...
GenericSetup svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/GenericSetup/tags/1.1-beta
We shouldn't move the 1.6 release line to a newer GenericSetup release,
at least without a really good reason.
I don't remember who made that decision and why, but CMF 1.6.1 and 1.6.2
were released with a newer version. I don't think we can revert that
decision for CMF 1.6.3.
I think we should be *trying* to keep the CMF pointed at released
versions of GS, and should definitely delay making CMF releases until we
can tie them to a tagged release of GS. Dependencies which are released
separately need to be managed with more care.
I'm fine with requiring tagged GS releases for CMF *releases*. But
sometimes it is useful to link unreleased CMF branches to unreleased
GenericSetup versions. This helps to avoid problems caused by stitching
in new versions right before a release.
Cheers,
Yuppie
