Hi Christoph,
All Automake release announcements since 2.13 warn about
future Automake 2.0 incompatibilities.
I moved that noisy warning from the top of NEWS into a separate NEWS-2.0
file a couple of releases ago.
At the beginning there is a meeting between you (maybe more people,
I can take part, too) and the developers. Citing the FAQ:
I see. Well, that's fine, but I won't have much to say beyond "chase
open bugs". Many are system-specific. Others have had long discussions
with no clear resolution possible (but I still left them open).
Although it would be nice if we could say "these are the most important
bugs to work on", I can't. Triaging the bug list is itself a
time-consuming job that I can't take on.
Does anyone else reading here have ideas, or would like to participate
in such a meeting? Any other thoughts in general on this?
Please share text improvements with me, once we decide to apply.
Ack.
Thanks,
Karl
