[Zope-dev] version pinning on tags

[Adam GROSZER]

Hello,

I found while trying to get the KGS 3.4.1 together that MISSING
versions on tags/previous versions are BAD.

The problem is that if you work with the trunk you test the package
against (usually) the current versions.
If you later get back to a package for a bugfix or whatever, it's a
pain to get the tests running again because the dependent package
versions shifted. Right now the only chance is to guess versions or
KGS's.

I'd say we should nail the package versions on (at least) tags.
Either to a KGS, or drop a versions.cfg into the package.
The recipe buildout.dumppickedversions would be handy.

Opinions?
