Subject: [Emc-developers] NOTICE: Feature freeze pending in view of a new
release
Hi all,
In accordance with the recommendation from the last IRC meeting, I plan to make
a "feature freeze" and make a new branch for the next release in the near
future. The joints/axes project merge is a pretty major thing and we would like
to release this sooner than later.
So does anyone that have a feature or something you are working on that you
would like to get in before the release?
After the branch for the new release, mostly only bug fixes and stabilizing
commits will be accepted on that branch, but also allowed are things such as new
drivers or hal comps and similar which usually can't break existing things.
My tentative plan is to wait a couple of weeks before branching, but I'm open to
suggestions.
It seems a bit premature to pull out a new branch right after merging with
master.
Why not let it sit in master for a couple months first to see if any problems
come up immediately.
I would bet (arguably) master gets used wider then a new branch will.
For instance has anyone made a config with stepconf and pncconf to see if they
work properly
in more then basic options?
These two programs are notoriously under tested before a new release and JA was
a big change.
Since JA doesn't really add anything for the majority of users (trivial kins)
waiting a bit wouldn't seem
to hurt much.
Just putting the thought out there.
