Please, explain the difference between:

branches/linuxport
branches/8.10_Atlantis-linux-osx-win32
tags/8.10_Atlantis-linux-osx-win32


As far as I can see "branches/linuxport" is the repository that hosts sources under heavy development that will lead to next version.
But what about "branches" and "tags"? What kind of updates are submitted to them.

And one more question: From which particular repository path/release was build the 8.10 linux live cd?

Thanks.

branches/8.10_Atlantis-linux-osx-win32
Branch of linuxport for 8.10 release series.
tags/8.10_Atlantis-linux-osx-win32
The specific revision from 8.10 branch declared as the 8.10 release.

Read up on SVN and what the trunk, branches, tags dirs are for if you still don't understand.
