Keeping in mind that there will be a beta of PHP 5 pretty soon, I think it's better to commit all changes to HEAD and PHP_4 and to merge bug fixes into PHP_4_3. This way we don't run into merging trouble when it becomes time for us to steer the development of the installer for PHP 5. > I guess that working in 3 different branches at the same time for us > will introduce wrong commits and missmatched patches. As there are only few people working on the installer (Stig, Pierre, you and me), I don't see much of a problem there. -- - Martin Martin Jansen http://martinjansen.com/
