[Mapbender-dev] branches, tags and svn ...

[Michael Schulz]

Hi,

i think we would need at least one test branch, where all contributors
can add code. Then merging of tested and probably voted for code can
be merged into the trunk by e.g. administrators.

@Thomas: another thing with subdirectories containing new extensions
is that they sometimes require a changed version of central scripts
like map.php or a class. Do you put such things also in the subdir?

Greetings, Michael
