Why isn't DRUPAL-4-7 adequate for the branch?
it is adequate for the default, stable branch, just like we've always used. those branches will continue to work like they always have. however, these other branches i'm talking about are for development and other stable releases of contrib modules that are still compatible with the same version of drupal core's API. for example, read the initial "tagadelic 'backport'" email that started the parent thread... furthermore, rtf-handout. ;) http://drupal.org/files/new_release.pdf if that's not enough, rtf-issue where i first fought for (and won) the argument that we need this in contrib: http://drupal.org/node/58066 in particular, comment #16: http://drupal.org/node/58066#comment-104663 enjoy, -derek
