The branches are related by being part of a common project, and therefore sharing the same set of committers. Also, it's not a all-or-nothing thing. Using another branch is a low profile way of getting started, because it requires no setup at all. If the need (different committers, high activity level) is there, you can always push the branches into a different repo -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - hanwen@xs4all.nl - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen
