I announced when releasing 2.2.5 that it would be the last 2.2 with some new features. 2.2.6 was supposed to be bugfix only. Hélas, joshua & chris hacked a lot of things here (why ? I don't know. Maybe it's to introduce new features that can't wait for 3.0), thus my "problem". In fact, the primary work that chris and I hacked on was in fact a bugfix for the MARC editor, not a new feature. This applies to several other things I've worked on as well.
It's also true that I have added what could be considered 'minor' features to rel_2_2. The main consideration being that the work required in updating a customer with all of the liblime customizations was far exceeding my resources. Creating several new system preferences has enabled me to keep all customers on a stock CVS release rather than maintain my own seperate repository.
(The next problem will be to port the improvements to head...) Of course, I fully intend to port all the improvements I've made to HEAD ...
I think we had better stay with rel_2_2 branch code. But i'll tag the 2.4.0 with a 2.4.0 tag.
Question to chris & joshua : do you think you'll add new features after 2.4.0 or can you promise you'll work only on HEAD ? ;-) I will only work on HEAD, unless a customer requires a bugfix (like they did with the MARC editor).
