The --kenny-- tree is designed to hold the development tree for GNOME, while the --timmy-- tree is designed to hold the stable one. The idea being that --kenny-- will become move to 2.7.x when GNOME development starts ramping up again, while --timmy-- will be used to store a stable tree for people testing 2.7.x can come back to, should anything go wrong. Once 2.7 becomes 2.8, you'll more than likely see a --timmy--2.8.x tree to match. Of course, the stable tree is also useful for legacy distributions and vendors who aren't yet shipping GNOME 2.6.x :) > Is the kenny tree no longer being maintained? Far from it, i'd expect Jeff has also sorts of crazy ideas for it once GNOME development starts up again. Regards, Paul
