ANY module in the production repository should work. The beta repository should be for things that are supposed to work. Issues found with modules on the beta repository are supposed to be reported.
If we're posting modules that are truly experimental and not content verification, shouldn't they be in another repository? That is, put stuff that is not in beta testing somewhere besides the beta repository. Users (like me) who don't code do access the beta repository with the intent of helping to verify things work and to get a first look at new stuff. They won't be (and shouldn't need to be) fully aware of all the coding going on in the background. Create an alpha, skunkworks, etc. branch for hashing out code. The beta branch is (should be) for content. --- On Mon, 5/25/09, Chris Little <chris...@crosswire.org> wrote: > From: Chris Little <chris...@crosswire.org> > Subject: Re: [sword-devel] Problems with LXXM module in CrossWire beta > To: "SWORD Developers' Collaboration Forum" <sword-devel@crosswire.org> > Date: Monday, May 25, 2009, 3:15 PM > LXXM is an experimental module (hence > its listing in the experimental section of that wiki page). > It employs features (notably VerseTreeKey) not yet > completely implemented in Sword, much less any front end. > There's no expectation that it should work under any front > end, in its posted state.
