Re: OJB maintenance branch - who volunteers?
hi olli, imo we definitely need a maint-branch. i'm also willing to contribute some of my time to this subproject although there will be a lot of work to be done for new features. hth jakob [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I would like to re-open this discussion that has frequently been addressed, even in ongoing threads.

Reasding the other postings, I understand that there is consensus that version 1.0.0 is a canonical or even self-evident point to create such a branch. I propose to create that branch (or extra modul) asap and then develop versions 1.0.x there. I offer to help maintain that branch or module.
