As you all know we are currently working towards a stable release. I need to get and idea of what open items are left before I declare a feature freeze. Here is the list of things I know about:
* Environment variable path edit dialog (me, in progress). * Add bitmaps and missing entries to GAL canvas context menu (CERN). * Python API (Miguel). * OSX track pad (Garth). Are there any other features that are on the radar for the next stable release? I will make exceptions on a case by case basis after the freeze but I don't want to get blind sided by any unexpected feature requests the week before the stable release. We need to go through the bug tracker and make sure we don't have any known severe bugs which cause crashes and/or data loss that have not been tagged fix committed and take the appropriate action. This number will have to be zero before I will make the stable release. Obviously I would like to get as many of non-critical bugs fixed as well. What is the current status of the documentation and it's CMake build configuration code? Are we far enough along that we can move the repo to https://github.com/KiCad? I want all of the "official" KiCad repos there for obvious reasons. We also need to get this set up soon so the documentation for the new router features can be added which I'm guessing will take awhile. I will give all of the necessary document developers commit access to that repo once it is set up. I'm going to let the doc developers handle the pull requests so I can keep my involvement to a minimum. Also, what about nightly builds of the documentation? We will need them as well. I think we are in pretty good shape as far as nightly builds go for all of the major platforms. Thanks to all of you who have worked tirelessly on this. If we are missing anything in this regard, please help out if you can so we can have as many bases covered as possible once the stable release is out. Hopefully I can announce the feature freeze in the next few weeks so we can start focusing on the stable release. Thank you all for efforts. I hoping the next stable release of KiCad will meet the needs of our users.
