[Phpmyadmin-devel] Re: phpMyAdmin Homepage
Hi List!
I noticed that the CVS link on the phpMyAdmin website to the current CVS version is labelled as "CVS version 2.2.7-cvs". Shouldn't this be "CVS version 2.3.0-cvs"?
My fault! But I wonder if we'd not better work on two branches in the CVS tree or on two CVS trees: one where we just pursuit the fixing of little bugs of the 2.2.6 release (2.2.7-cvs then), and the other one where we start the "big work" for 2.3.0. Any thought?

I would not like to branch, because: - my time is limited and I don't like the idea of applying the corrections to 2 trees - 2.2.6 is stable and useful as is - we can always put individual patches on phpmyadmin.net for important 2.2.6 corrections - we should concentrate on 2.3.0 to be more productive and focused "Loïc" a écrit :

Loïc and List, we should decide about working in 1 branch or 2, because right now we are stalled: we can't start big changes if we have to release a 2.2.7 in a few weeks. On the other hand, we don't need to work 3 months on a 2.3.0: even if the tbl_properties split is not completed, we can release it, say in 6 weeks. We just have to be sure that the new cfg variables are in place. We now have 3 volunteers on this, so better start soon! Marc Delisle a écrit :

Marc, why shall we hurry with 2.3.0? Even if we needed 3 months, why shouldn't we take the ime we need? I really don't like the idea of half-finished software. We are not Microsoft... :o) imho we should open a bugfix branch where we only commit really important bugfixes that don't go too deep into the code, like the russian laguage file for instance. And in a few weeks, we'll release it as 2.2.7 and close the branch. If you have not time to work on a second brach, it doesn't matter. It's not necessary that we all work on the bugfix branch, Loïc and me could do it (is it all right for you, Loïc?)... As a base for the bugfix branch, we should use the files of our 2.2.6 release since I already committed patches I'm currently working on... Alexander
Alexander, I did not said we should hurry for 2.3.0. What we will release as 2.3.0 will be tested, but 2.3.0 won't have all the 50 new features requested :) We once had 2 branches for this projects and I did not like the experience: too much work applying fixes in both branches, and possibly having 2 versions for the same fix. Testing 2 branches, etc. But I did not decide anything, I just told you my opinion. Also, I think that 2.2.6 is quite useful in itself, and the bugs that will show up will be light and can wait some weeks. Rabus a écrit :
