As a non-contributing lurker, I must say that from what I've seen
a slightly different policy may be needed for releasing patches
as I get the feeling that the frequency and stability of patches
is a concern and that some people on the list are getting
confused and frustrated.
Don't get me wrong, rapid development and release of patches is
great - often projects get too bogged down and you have to wait
months for fixes.
How about two levels of patch:
Stable - released every month or so, including all recent
development, clean to install/compile.
Always released as a complete cummulative patch on top
of a well defined based (i.e. 2.2.13).
Dynamic - released as often as Dag is prepared too, not
neccesarily clean to install/compile, and only based on
last stable release. These patches could each address
individual issues and therefore be applicatble with or
without eachother.
Make sense? Crap idea?
