Apache Flex README

Hi,

The README file curently has:

Getting the latest sources via Subversion
=========================================

    You can always checkout the latest source via subversion using the following
    command:

    svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/trunk flex

    For further information visit http://incubator.apache.org/flex/source.html


To save confusion (ie as we're not working in trunk) should be be more like this?

Getting the latest sources via Subversion
=========================================

    You can always checkout the latest source via subversion.

    If you are looking for the cutting edge development branch of the Flex SDK:
    
    svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/sdk/branches/develop/ flex

    If you are looking for the pre-release version of the Flex SDK:

    svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/sdk/trunk/ flex

    For further information visit http://incubator.apache.org/flex/source.html


Thanks,
Justin

agreed, Terminology terms should be chose very carefully, cuz it could cause a lot of misunderstanding.

Not sure how could the trunk be consider "cutting edge" when it is behind development branch?

The same terms are use on this page:
http://incubator.apache.org/flex/source.html

Thanks,
Justin

I would call it the development branch and cutting-edge branch.  When I
hear cutting-edge, I assume work that is near-ready to release, not in
currently development.  Just throwing my 2c out there...

I like that a lot better.  I just want to deviate too much from the
terminology used in other Apache projects.

How about:
    The source code for the branch currently under development can be
checked out here:
    
    svn co 
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/sdk/branches/develop/ flex

    The source code for the latest Apache Flex release can be checked out
here:

    svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/sdk/trunk/ flex

Re: Apache Flex README

If we are working on the develop branch, I think we shouldn't call it a release. A release should be     
a relatively stable version and released to the public, so the trunk being called latest release seems reasonable enough to me.  The develop branch should be just called the the develop branch, and I guess now we only have one branch that is under development?

Is it the latest Apache Flex release or the last Apache Flex release?
Aren't we currently working on the latest Apache Flex release?

How about:
    The source code for the branch currently under development can be
checked out here:
    
    svn co 
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/sdk/branches/develop/ flex

    The source code for the latest Apache Flex release can be checked out
here:

    svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/sdk/trunk/ flex
