debian package and 0.39_beta thoughts

I see a problem with how things are organize on the compiler.git repository.

If you consider the master branch as the next stable version, you should make all the changes in the master then
merge it to the stable branch.

but for now stable contain some relevant changes that are not in master (especially the Makefile and maybe other things)

So to my opinion it would be nice exceptionnaly to merge stable into master to include the relevant changes of stable into master. The stable branch must be contain in the master branch. This is not the case today.

what do you think about this ?

Yes. Then we will probably have a 0.39-rc2 and maybe rc3 before 0.4

sorry I did not know about this.
