+1. Double commits is work and easy to forget. I like Steve's idea of
a quarterly drop and I agree with Jesse that we should be stricter
about what goes into a dot-dot release. I don't have much else to add.

Hi,
it's my strong belief that part of the reason the javah and move bugs
made it into 1.6.3 is that our branches are living too long. The same
happened to 1.5.2 (which required 1.5.3 quickly) because the 1.5
branch lived to long (IMHO).
In my day-to-day Ant usage I use CVS HEAD, all the time,
This leads me to the subject of this vote. Let's get rid of the
branch, stabelize CVS HEAD and release 1.7.0-beta in a reasonable
time-frame.
Cheers

If I read this correctly, you're saying that the number of bugs
increases when there's a long period of time between branches,
mainly because it's difficult to test the branch properly as most
(if not all) of the committers use HEAD.
Yes. In particular the number of bugs that are only present in the
branch but not on CVS head.
Both the javah and move bugs have been fixed in HEAD for many
weeks before we released 1.6.3.

ok, so then maintaining the branch becomes a trivial exercise after 2*

migrate it to
