OBS Project structure and promotion

The Mer projects on OBS look like this: 

Maemo:Mer:Stable
Maemo:Mer:Stable:HW:Beagle
Maemo:Mer:Stable:HW:N8x0

This means all devices will have the main 'Stable' repository and an appropriate HW repository.

The development area is expanded slightly: 

Maemo:Mer:Devel:Apps
Maemo:Mer:Devel:Base
Maemo:Mer:Devel:MaemoCommon
Maemo:Mer:Devel:MaemoCommon:L10n
Maemo:Mer:Devel:UI
Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:Beagle:Devel
Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:N8x0:Devel

Details of packages in each area is given in thePackages pages.

Packages in each of these Devel subproject areas can be hacked on and then, when they're kinda working they are consolidated into the :Devel area (which is used as a build target for the :Devel:* subprojects) 

Maemo:Mer:Devel
Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:N8x0
Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:Beagle

Packages are placed in :Testing with the intention of including them in the next release subject to QA and bug fixes 

 Maemo:Mer:Testing
 Maemo:Mer:Testing:HW:Beagle
 Maemo:Mer:Testing:HW:N8x0

Once :Testing is ready a release of all packages to a numbered version is made: 

 Maemo:Mer:0.13
 Maemo:Mer:0.13:HW:Beagle
 Maemo:Mer:0.13:HW:N8x0

Note that the :HW promotion process is slightly different: 

Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:N8x0:Devel -> Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:N8x0 -> Maemo:Mer:Testing:HW:N8x0 -> Maemo:Mer:Stable:HW:N8x0
