Hi Jendrik, Right... :-) Currently rednotebook VCS uses master for all test builds. This is awkward to prepare rednotebook for Debian inclusion thus then inclusion in Ubuntu. Ideally... master branch is for latest Debian/Ubuntu sources that uses all the latest compat and other packaging settings. This would make submission to Debian (sid/unstable, where all new packages and new versions go) easier. stable branch would be the one that has all backward compat for Debian stable and the Ubuntu LTS versions you wish to support. This branch would be committed to directly and rarely change; and would only be updated with fully compatible and tested Debian/Ubuntu packaging changes. Doing the above makes life easier, knowing that master branch is bleeding edge and stable is highly compatible for builds on already in production systems that currently would not get rednotebook inclusion. In time this would change when rednotebook is accepted into both the Debian/Ubuntu archives, matures and is part of the archive at distro release time. Thoughts?
