What's the point of RC and Release? Isn't every incarnation of
Snowglobe going to be equivalent to a First Look stable build? I don't
remember First Look going through a RC then Release series?
The changes will go through the RC and Release series if they get cherry
picked for the standard viewer.
If you go with another RC series, then you'll have people running
Snowglobe out of SVN builds, RC builds, and Release builds. You don't
have a very big audience as it is. Fragmenting it won't help. Everyone
will be aware that Snowglobe is an Alpha release.
Snowglobe needs more than just minor bug fixes. See my comment at
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-13437
I think http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Snowglobe_Current_Cycle needs a
link to a JIRA query that will generate a list of open issues. I
don't know how to make such a query, though.
