I'd like to make a suggestion:
Can we have a shared skunk branch? At present we each have our own
skunk branches.
I think that what Sim was trying to achieve was a more cohesive
collaborative approach by developing in trunk, I think we could have
that with a shared skunk development branch.
At stable points the skunk development branch can replace trunk. We
might have a period of refactoring and bug fixing, followed by a period
of stabilisation, testing and documenting, before replacing trunk, then
branching off a release.
I'd also like to see the qa test suite broken out and managed
separately, this would allow the same test libraries to run against both
skunk development and trunk branches.
This might help speed up our release cycle too.
What are your thoughts and experiences?
Regards,
Peter.
