    [greg-dev] new svn branch for multiuser support?

    Hi everyone,
    
    Does anyone have any thoughts on creating a new branch in the
    subversion repository specifically for adding support for multiuser
    features to Gregarius? I would argue that support for multiple users
    is one of Gregarius' most requested features, and that it *must*
    appear in the next release - it is clear that it is important enough
    to have its own branch.
    
    Support for multiple users is likely to be a large undertaking that
    would significantly change Gregarius' database structure. I think that
    part of the reason that development on features essential to multiuser
    support has been slow is because of the conservatism of Gregarius'
    unstable codebase. While this is wonderful for end users, I think it
    slows down the pace of development. Creating a new branch for
    multiuser support would keep the historical stability of the trunk
    while ensuring that development of multiuser features will occur.
