Re: [development] Is DRUPAL-5 branch necessary for module?

I am not a CVS guru, but I think this model makes perfect sense to me -- until HEAD is not compatible with 5.0, there is no need to branch. But then, it sounds like that won't be too long before some major changes are introduced to HEAD. But you still might keep your module HEAD compatible with D5 until the D6 API (or whatever is next) stabilizes.

Well, there are people who cvs update from the DRUPAL-5 tag, which means they can't get your module. I had a bug posted to my issue queue about that. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Maintaining 2 branches when you only support one Drupal version is a serious pain, IMO, and it's beyond a lot of developers.
