[Ifolder-dev] Re: Update

[GG H. <he...@no...>]

Sure we could follow the tagging with the version no. too.
For the newui there was branch created and was merged back to trunk only after the development. As this UI has undergone the usability and Human Factor guidelines, it would be good to continue with the new one. We shall fix all the minor glitches if we have any.
 
thanks and regards,
gg

Thanks for the info.

I'll see if I have a chance to test the new UI.

I wonder if it makes sense, for the next time, to have tags with version
numbers instead of names that are difficult to track. Also, it may make
sense to create branches instead of tags, in order to be able to
backport bugfixes to them? Just my 2cents.

Thanks,

Andrés
