This is the "stable" branch of the next flatnuke version, it's directly build from CVS tree. It can include some third part patches and its release is subordinate to some verification test. It may contain some back-porting of the developing branch.

This is the "developing" branch of a not-so-next flatnuke version, it derives from stable CVS version and it may contain some implementations that must be tested for long time. So it's usually an unstable version. DO NOT USE! If you are developer you can test it and report bug, fixes and improvements.

Making a patch:
1) Download the latest stable snapshot
2) $ tar vfxz flatnuke-x.y.z-date.tar.gz
3) $ mv flatnuke flatnuke-patch
4) $ tar vfxz flatnuke-x.y.z-date.tar.gz
5) modify files in flatnuke-patch
6) $ diff -Naur flatnuke flatnuke-patch > mypatch.diff
7) $ gzip mypatch.diff
8) send patch as attachment to <simone_vellei at users dot sf dot net>
