First, don't Panic :-)

Your commit was on the right branch.

SAMBA_3_0 and trunk are the samba 3 development branch.
Experimental stuff should go in trunk all other stuff should go in
SAMBA_3_0

*_RELEASE branches are reserved to the maintainer , here he commit all
the changes that will go into a release. Never touch an *_RELEASE
branch.

Simo.
