This was the last set of dates Martin had put up for 0.5 release. I
suspect that
it is still worth putting a 0.5 as quite a lot of fixes have been
made since M4.
Are we still on for freeze on Monday?
Feature Freeze March 02nd
RC March 23rd (and branch trunk)
I'd like to get the new build scheme in for M5, based on cmake - I'm
not sure I'll have a first cut in by Monday, but it would be next week
sometime. I think that in order for that to be in M5, though, we'll
need some group discussion after getting a chance to test drive it a
bit.
Thoughts?
I'm keen to get it in but it will need some advance warning so people
can try it in different environments. There may be some teething
problems and there are significant downstream build systems that will
be affected. Ideally we want it to have the same "API" (./bootstrap;
./configure --with-same-options; make), where bootstrap and configure
are wrappers to the new system.
It will most likely take a good 3-6 weeks to test a new make system, and
deal with all the compat and downstream testing. So we probably have two
options
- release 0.5 then do the build update
- delay 0.5 for a month or so.
