Yes, I think I understand you better now. Thank you for explanation. I will wait while the solid foundation is established.

I can't imagine "linear sequence of releases", it's something unrelated to open software development. How so? If you take a look at Eclipse for instance, it is very much an OpenSource software, and we currently have release 4.3.1 there, and you can trace back through a linear sequence of ...

Interesting background. What country/city is it (I know it is offtopic, but just out of curiosity - there are no such organizations in our town AFAIK)?

nobody whats tree of different BlackBoxes. But we wants that every has ability to suggest the fix or feature based on current stable version for further discussion but the "center". Agree. I can't imagine "linear sequence of releases", it's something unrelated to open software d...

;v) You really want to go there? Do you have any experience with open software development? Do you have any experience with version control systems?

In case we want to have back history, the option to create repository based on earlier BB versions. For example, start from BB 1.5, then 1.6 RC5, 1.6 RC6, 1.6.0. Yes, nice to have all versions. On the other side there is no much sense in it - there is no history between releases anyway. You can jus...

Ok. Let's make the long voting with the discussion. How long? One or two years? OK, Ivan. The real proposal :) Just go to github (or bitbucket, whatever you like more) and make the repository. You are trusted and responsible person. If someone will make a better solution - it is not a big deal to m...

You are right. That question should be discussed and performed soon. But before we need to decide: What repository to choose? GitHub or maybe Bitbucket? I suggest to make a voting. In this way it will be decided much sooner. Who will be the owner or there is a possibility of a group authorship. And...
