RE: [Phpgroupware-developers] Release planning (was XSLT-version)

[Brian Johnson]

So your in favour of making .16 into HEAD and progressing from there for .18?
(of course we should save the HEAD code in a separate branch while we scavenge
code from it that we intend to keep

Could you please review and comment to this list on the outline at
http://wiki.phpgroupware.org/index.php?page=release_plan (I've stuck in a
bunch of tracking tickets to give people an idea of what could be included ..
do we need to be that specific?)
