Are there new features for 1.2 already?
Since it takes a while for us to get releases out, its probably best
to minimize non-bugfix changes to the branch, though I suppose if its
a minor improvement that is should be fine, major feature work should
be avoided (preferring that for 2.0 actually).
During this stabilization of 1.2 I would say that anything outside of
a bugfix should probably be presented to the list for direction as to
if it should go into 1.2, wait until 1.2 is out, or just in 2.0. And
then lets just take it case by case. I think its okay for new bits
to get added to a beta. And hopefully soon when we get to RCx then
we will have a faster turn around to get a release out.

Hi Jason,
Thank you for your clarification. Since 1.2 beta is out, I was
under the impression that we will be stabilizing the 1.2 branch and
not put any new functions/improvements. New functions/improvements
can still go into 1.x. My confusion was whether to hold back
commits to branches\1.2 unless it is a bug fix. As for the bug
fixes, they will go into all relevant branches.

Um... its where code for the 1.2* line of Geronimo goes.
I'd imagine that if a a fix for "1.x" is applicable for the 1.2 line
then it could be committed there, probably also to branches/1.1 too
if its a bug fix for both.
Sure improvement fixes can still go into 1.2, and be marked for fix
in 1.2, since 1.2 is not yet out the door. Once 1.2 is officially
out, then bugs/whatever for the 1.2 line will go into branches/1.2
and should be marked for fix in "1.2.1", etc.
This seems kinda obvious to me... maybe I'm missing something in your
question?
