Naming conventions for branches

[Matt Hogstrom <ma...@hogstrom.org>]

To make sure we're all on the same page here is a suggested naming convention for the build environment:

1.1 - Current release we're working on
1.2 - dead version of what's currently in trunk
1.3 - what will be coming on Wednesday morning assuming there are no -1s

So far all votes have been +1 and I think using the above version numbers will avoid confusion 
during the transition period.

Let's move this discussion to the other thread then.  Thanks Jason

I forget who said it... but I'm gonna bet that if we skip 1.2, that it
will just confuse people.

So, here is my -1, to effectively skipping 1.2 by making it a dead branch.

I don't see any reason why we can not continue using 1.2-SNAPSHOT for
the soon to be trunk and call the current soon to be replaced as
1.2-DEAD or something along those lines... or if this really is dead
code then delete it as Geir suggested.

I don't think that skipping 1.2 as an official release target for G is
a good idea.
