Now, in HEAD, I start porting to DRUPAL CORE HEAD. There's no point adding features here as we are probably in code freeze anyway and we're all upgrading like mad.

Then, DRUPAL-6 comes along. Branch my module, wipe HEAD (till next code freeze) and continue devel down the DRUPAL-6 branch.

please correct me if i'm wrong, but given this approach, why ever have HEAD at all? let's say you permanently wipe the files in HEAD except for the README. couldn't you just create the DRUPAL-6 branch directly from the latest DRUPAL-5 work? it doesn't seem like HEAD ever needs to exist in this model, except as a placeholder for the README. am i off base?? chad
