All,


I'm not sure if this has been discussed before at any length, but I would
like to discuss if it makes sense to have source code in the stable trunk
and installable packages built and provided from the rapidly changing
development trunk.


For some background we've been working through some proof of concept
deployments. Because the packages are coming from the development trunk we
have been bitten repeatedly by having packages updated following code merges
throughout the day. This has resulted in services such as networking no
longer functioning. It seems to me, at least, that it would make sense to
have a set of known working packages, packaged at each release point, in the
stable trunk and having the source to build from in the development trunk.


Thoughts?
