I suspect there's just some miscommunication about who is actually supposed to make the branch. I have just gone ahead and made it. But yes, now that there is one, the 2.9 branch is frozen for features. - C On Sat, 2005-11-12 at 14:56 -0500, Paul Winkler wrote:

OK. I thought there was going to be a 2.9 branch by now, but I don't see one. Is the trunk totally frozen now or what?
Is it too late to land my long-forgotten configure changes as discussed at http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2004-July/151839.html ?
This would allow multiple "preferred" versions of Python when a bugfix release of python comes out - so we don't do something silly like advise people to downgrade from a perfectly good 2.4.x to 2.4.(x-1).
I negligently never merged my branch, forgot about it, and only remembered it when Florent nudged us to clean up old branches. I have a local zope 2 trunk sandbox with my changes hand-merged into configure, but my branch is so ancient that I think I should delete it and start over.
