Based on encouraging comments from you and Jacopo and others, and seeing the rate at which new commits are added, I am thinking it may be best to get on the trunk, even for production. However I can't imagine running nightly builds on a production server.
I'm thinking I'd build nightly on the development laptop, and update the production server every week or two, to a fairly recent, more-or-less "known good" revision level. I'm hoping this would provide the best of both worlds. And I'm hoping that this would avoid any mission-critical breakages until the fixes have been committed. Does that seem reasonable? I don't kid myself that I can submit much code yet, but hopefully I can help test and document bugs, even if I can't fix them yet. Hopefully that will come soon. -- Matt Warnock <mwarn...@ridgecrestherbals.com> RidgeCrest Herbals, Inc.
