Thanks a lot, I?m going to check this... (german translation seems to be 
incomplete...)

Lots of people are afraid of changing major releases (3.5->2.6->3.7) 
Think about "Never touch a running system" but it is needed to correct 
some major bugs discovered....

Merging different trees is a easy task as long as the trees are not that 
different :

(Non real examples follows)

#typo3_5_0_bugfixes_branch >
cvs up -j typo3_6_0
retriving revision XX
Merging diffenrences between XX and XY

cvs ci -m "Merged from current whatever tree"
M blah.php

I suggest to use the full facilities that CVS is providing...

PS: If I could help with CVS tagging and branching, let me know, I've 
got a little experiance...
