Rails - Jul 2005 - svn repository & commits in "branches"

Hello,

I''m seeing (on the timeline at http://dev.rubyonrails.com/timeline )
commits on:

root/branches/p2/
root/spinoffs/scriptaculous/

And I was wondering :
* what is being worked on exactly here?
* is ''spinoffs/scriptaculous'' actually a branch or what?
* any information on when this work is going to be merged back in the trunk?

Best regards,

Jeroen Janssen

My understanding is that scriptaculous isn''t a "branch" in
the "this
is a different fork of Rails" sense of the word.  Scriptaculous is the
javascript libraries involved with many of the neat AJAX helpers that
can be found in Rails.  It is developed separately from the Rails core
by different people.

Duh,

I just found out (myself) that script.aculo.us is being "hosted" on
the
rails subversion server... so I can now answer those questions myself now
:)

p2 is a branch on which I do my performance work for Rails. Most of it 
has already been merged into trunk and will be contained in the next 
release.

Since you asked for it, here are the latest figures (comparing release 
0.13.1 against p2, see http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/912 for 
information regarding the table below):

configuration 1: r131
  requests=1000, options=-r131
configuration 2: p2
  requests=1000, options=-p2
