As long as everything compiles, the examples actually work, and there aren't any serious test failures (this last is open to interpretation, of course!), we may as well make a full release.And the current state is more or less there :-)
Indeed. Great work everybody!
Of course, there's no reason not to also have a stable branch updated at the same time as a numbered release.What would be the benefit of a third branch?
Not a branch in the same sense, but a tag (which in SVN at least are just branches that aren't updated). So we update master every 6 months as the release branch, and just tag it each time with a version number (2.0, 2.1, etc.). Then I'll build binary packages and update the website with that. Easier to remember a version number than a git hash. ;)
