Re: [Springframework-developer] branching CVS

[Colin S. <col...@ex...>]

You can indeed branch off a tag. The reason why you would want to go 
ahead and actually create the branch is that you actually want to commit 
code to both the branch and HEAD.

For 3-4 weeks, I personally have no time to do even as much 1.0 stuff as 
I'd like to, never mind 1.1 features, so a branch makes sense only if 
other people want to check in code there.
