Experimental Branches

Experimental branches are SVN branches which are not immediately destined to be released in the main code base and thus, are a good way to make tests, show a proof-of-concept, which when ready, can be merged into trunk, for release in the next version of Tiki.

This is a similar idea, but different than features which are part of the main Tiki code base but tagged as Experimental.

Experimental branches are great in the early stage of development because you can change directions without consequence. Once you merge into trunk (since some people are running sites on trunk), you need to handle the Database Schema Upgrade. On the other hand, things don't get tested as much in experimental branches. So eventually, you've got to merge to trunk :-)

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
