[WWdevel] rel-2-3-dev branch created

[Sam H. <sh...@ma...>]

Hi,

Last week I created a pre-release branch for WeBWorK 2.3. It's called  
rel-2-3-dev. It will eventually be released as WeBWorK 2.3.0 and then  
continue accumulating fixes for subsequent 2.3.x releases.

This code is very similar to HEAD (perhaps identical) at the moment,  
but it will diverge as we start playing with experimental code in  
HEAD. It should be fairly stable at this point.

Please don't commit stuff to this directly, but if you think a commit  
should be included in this branch make a not of it in your commit  
message or drop me an email. I've been monitoring the cvs log emails  
and including bugfix-type commits.

If you'd like to help test, please update your systems to the branch:

cd /path/to/webwork2
cvs up -dP -r rel-2-3-dev
cd ../pg
cvs up -dP -r rel-2-3-dev

If you've been running HEAD, the update should be painless. If you're  
running rel-2-2-dev or a 2.2.x release, you'll need to apply updates  
to global.conf, database.conf, and webwork.apache-config. Another  
thing to remember is to run wwdb_check and wwdb_upgrade after you  
install 2.3 for the first time.
