Confused about nightly builds and 1.1b2 bugs

[Je...@nlgroup.ca]

Sorry for the dumb question and another thread on nightly builds....

Do the nighlty builds reflect the up comming release candidate for 1.1 (or
1.1b3) or
are they a separate branch for a future release.

I am hearing about new  functionality in the nightly builds.
I would consider trying a 'stable nighlty' knowing that 1.1 final would
have that same functionality.

Thanks.

We don't have any fancy branching (at this point) like Tomcat etc do 
(that I am aware of).  The nightly builds reflect the current status of 
what will (eventually) be 1.1 final.

The nightly builds are run from the HEAD branch of the sources, which will
ultimately be the source for the real 1.1 release.  When bugs are closed
as FIXED in Bugzilla, you'll often see comments like "fixed in nightly
build 20021024", which would mean that any nightly build from October 24
on would include the fix, as well as the upcoming release.

There's not really such a thing as a "stable nightly" -- but nightlies,
any future betas or release candidates, and the final 1.1 release are all
built from the same branch (currently the HEAD).

At some future point, the 1.1 code really will be branched, so that the
HEAD can be used for 1.2/2.0/whatever stuff.  Until then, the nightly
builds reflect the latest and greatest 1.1 code.
