Stable releases would be created as a branch from the head-rev much  
like our Piccolo release branches are done and binaries  can be build  
from them.  I have seen that described in several previous messages  
and it is in the wiki diagrams.  In
	http://community.ingres.com/wiki/Image:Branch-strategy-1.png
It is called CR1 and CR2.

The head-rev is source only, or possibly with nightly builds on select  
platforms, and can be downloaded by community developers to do  
whatever.  Big projects might wish to create branches early on in the  
project.  Again, I consider these things to be process questions, not  
strategic questions.  They would be needed for either scenario.

I don't see it as being any different process than our internal  
systems process of creating "ingres2006r3" or the various labels used  
for patches.

I hope you take 100% of the source from the proper source code control  
system code line.......
