+1 for this We have to plan branching rules for this, or is tagging the master our way (+feature branches)? Whatever works for you. Let's ask the maintainers: is there a problem with starting such releases because of one or more apps (or important features) are broken? E.g. Kexi is in pretty good shape, comparable to 2.3 series. -- regards / pozdrawiam, Jaroslaw Staniek http://www.linkedin.com/in/jstaniek Kexi & Calligra (kexi-project.org, identi.ca/kexi, calligra-suite.org) KDE Software Development Platform on MS Windows (windows.kde.org) _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
