Hi Yonik, > Excuse me? I assume that's aimed at me? No, that was not aimed at you. It was a general comment. There are many examples of companies /users that fork trunk. Lucid Imagination was one of them (the product LucidWorks was initially based on trunk, as far as I remember). Also P.S. has a forked Solr distribution. And I think HelioSearch, too.
So it was not against you. It was just a comment, that those people should not fork trunk and release it, but instead fork branch_4x and do their releases from there. Trunk is playground. > Your'e insinuating I voted against moving to Java8 right now because of my > corporate interests? The whole discussion with Java 8 was clearly about corporate interests, every reply had some wording around "company" in it. Trunk is playground and we are free to use Java 8 there, without taking care of users. Trunk is for developers, not the users. If we have a feature for release, we may backport to 4.x (at the moment). Unfortunately we do the backport quite often too early, releasing unbaked APIs. > I'd appreciate it if you didn't try to disparage my character every time we > happen to disagree. Sorry, wasn't my intention. I like you very much as a character, we met several times and had great discussions. I have no personal problem with you.
