I really agree, but instead I would put a date on the release. Releases are, let's say, every two months. Big features are done on their own branch. If we are more then 2 weeks from a release, we can merge from the branches, else we freeze the trunk and then release. -- Nicola Ken Barozzi nicolaken@apache.org - verba volant, scripta manent - (discussions get forgotten, just code remains) ---------------------------------------------------------------------
