That's the way most every project I've participated in has always worked. But I have to admit, this project seems to work a bit differently. I've never been part of one that kept a release in beta for 2 years. Usually, patches are made to trunk, and then "pulled up" into a release. Admittedly, I was around when NetBSD releases were considered too slow, and Theo split off OpenBSD with regular 6 month releases. There can certainly be differences about how often to branch releases. But, as was the original topic, it is very, VERY bad form to close an active developer's tickets. And I've never heard of a non-developer closing tickets at all! _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
