Oh, trust me, I had many times where I had to rebuild everything for that day's push because I forgot about a patch that should be in maint. At least your Meta/RB and Meta/PU scripts make it somewhat painless, that and Git's ability to just hard reset a branch back to what I last published. ;-) I just utterly failed to do it that morning. Or at least failed to do it for this change. > I just wanted to see if there was any particular reason not to have this > on 'maint'. Nope. -- Shawn.
