Re: A suggestion regarding stabel vs. experimental on the extension level

The main problem with this is that you can't really move files around in CVS nicely without some ugly hacks or without losing the revision history for those files. I would rather see some sort of indicator put into an ext/ directory that simply prevents it from being included in a release. eg. ext/foo/EXPERIMENTAL We can simply check for that file and not include the extension if it is there. That eliminates the need for shuffling files around in the CVS repository. -Rasmus On Thu, 16 Nov 2000, Zeev Suraski wrote: > That sounds like a good idea! > > Zeev > > At 12:27 16-11-00, Hartmut Holzgraefe wrote: > > > this is somehow related to the 4.1 thread and the discussions about > >which extensions should be in CVS and which should not ... > > > > we could maybe get rid of part of the problem if we'd create another > >subdir 'ext-experimental' (or something like that), move ext/ext_skel, > >ext/sekeleton/ and every extension from ext that is not ready for > >prime time (like ext/dav) from ext/ to ext-experimental/ > >and do *not* include ext-experimental/ in RCs and Releases > > > > this should at least help Release QA ... > > > >-- > >Hartmut Holzgraefe hartmut@six.de http://www.six.de > >+49-711-99091-77 > > > >-- > >PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> > >To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > >For additional commands, e-mail: php-dev-help@lists.php.net > >To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > > -- > Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> > CTO, Zend Technologies Ltd. http://www.zend.com/ > > > -- > PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-dev-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
