Hi!


This guideline <http://dev.zope.org/CVS/ZopeDevelopmentProcess> is very 
useful, but there are at least 2 questions it doesn't answer:


1.) How does it work with 2 release branches?
(currently there are Zope-2_6-branch and Zope-2_7-branch)

2.) How to note the fix in the CHANGES.txt on the trunk if you want?


looking at current practise:
============================

Since Zope-2_7-branch was tagged, there were two changes affecting all 3 
branches:

Collector #959/#514:

   CHANGES.txt Zope-2_6-branch: note in "2.6.2 beta 4" section
   CHANGES.txt Zope-2_7-branch: -
   CHANGES.txt            HEAD: -

Collector #953:

   CHANGES.txt Zope-2_6-branch: note in "2.6.2 beta 3" section
   CHANGES.txt Zope-2_7-branch: note in "2.7.0a2" section
   CHANGES.txt            HEAD: note in "HEAD only" section


"HEAD only" is definitely not true. Should HEAD's CHANGES.txt have a 
"2.6.2 beta 3" section?


Any thoughts? What's the Right Way to do it?


Thanks,

Yuppie
