Hi,

I have been using [1] as the version of GRASS that I use on a regular basis. I 
see that this version refers to itself as GRASS-7, and uses a new install 
target (as opposed to 'grass-6.3.svn'). 

Would it be wise to track the 'releasebranch_6_3' for a more stable GRASS 
experience? Does this version contain everything that 'trunk' had in it as of 
about a month ago?

All of this started when I was stuck by the bug associated with [2] . 

1. https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/trunk
2. http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/70


As of now I was thinking about keeping one source dir in sync with 6.3 and one 
with trunk, so that I have a stable environment, but can still try out the 
new features in 7.0 .

Any tips?

Cheers,
