I agree. I just thought that we would prepare the relase based on the
code in trunk/ , and in that case we would like to wait with the
merge before we do the release.
My definition of trunk is that it should be where the majority of
development happens. It is what we should build nightly, etc.
Major versions should be branched from trunk, and point releases
created as tags from the version branches.
A development branch (e.g., mapred) should be used when a few
developers need to make radical changes and do not want to disrupt
other developers.
So if most developers are now comfortable working on mapred, then we
no longer need to keep it in a branch. And we already have a version
branch for 0.7, so we don't need to reserve trunk for that.
Does this analysis sound right?
Yes, we just need to make sure that all important bits from trunk are on
the 0.7 branch, before we start.
