Hi everyone,
We plan to rebranch 1.18 from trunk soon (as in, almost immediately).
What we've found is that many things in the current branch are harder
to get working than they should be, and that trunk seems to be in
better shape (in particular, all tests are passing now). That will
mean taking on more code review, but it's work we'll have to do one
day or another. Apologies to hashar for not making this decision
sooner, since he spent a good chunk of the weekend trying to get unit
tests fully operational in the 1.18 branch (but thank you for making
the effort!)
That's not to say that everything that has been checked into trunk
over the past couple of months is automatically going to be a feature
of 1.18. Anything that's too complicated or risky that's been checked
in will be backed out of the branch and saved for 1.19.
Chad Horohoe (^demon on IRC) is going to be the one rebranching.
Let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks!
Rob
