Isn't HEAD sorta the local (to the maintainer) development 'branch' for the next revision? If not, what's the non-HEAD trunk for? Shouldn't people be submitting patches to non-HEAD instead of HEAD? Ooof, I'm getting a HEADache.... (hehheheheeeee, oh man Gair you still got it!) -- Gary R. Van Sickle Brewer. Patriot.
