Geir, I sent and email about this and the feedback I got was "do it".

Yes, at 1 a.m. yesterday, and two responses. I didn't get to dev list mail yesterday due to bringing home wife and new baby from hospital.


Regardless, we don't want this branch, the tag contains the real M4 code so the QA branch we created for testing M4 is confusing to users (like me).

No. Branches contain the code. The tag is a pointer to a moment in time on a branch. Putting aside the never-ending-argument about whether or not a security fix like M4.1 is possible due to naming preferences, what would happen if we had a horrible security or other problem that required us to distribute a patched release?

We would work on the branch, make a new tag, and test and release that. I think we need to keep our branches around.

Didn't we decide not to do this?

We leave the branch as well, so if someone wants to evolve it and tag, they can...
