Hi all, I've been working on the C++ broker flow control feature that I QIP'ed about last week. I'm planning on having the feature complete in time for the 0.10 release.
My concern is that I've been making a number of changes in my local sandbox that are, well, _local_. I'm just a dropped laptop or a spilled bottle of NightTrain away from losing all this work. Actually, I've been working in an git clone of the apache/qpid git repo on github - so my changes are safe. But what I'd really like to do is develop this off a branch on the qpid trunk. Couple of reasons: 1) better visibility to other qpid developers - no need to track my github repo. 2) better history with respect to merging from trunk. 3) we can better control the introduction of this feature into trunk with respect to the release schedule. Would it make sense, in general, to allow developers to create branches for the development of new or possibly disruptive features? We could leave it up to the release manager to make the go/no-go call for merging the branch prior to the alpha release. Opinions? -K --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:[email protected]
