Excellent! And thank you for putting so much into it over the last couple of weeks! > First, I'd like to know if someone wants to volunteer for > the whole release process. Please, speak up! I think it depends what the whole release process is. As a first step, a source release, I had envisaged just what I did with the commit labelled "0.31dev" : (a) tag that commit (b) hg clone it and zip the result (c) upload to https://sourceforge.net/projects/ghdl-updates/files/Source/ (d) update Wikis etc as required. and I would certainly be happy to do that! but from what I can tell, the dist.sh script does considerably more. > But, to be honest, I don't plan to do the binary release. My > own linux distribution is too old. There are too many combinations of OS, distribution, platform to cover all the bases with binary releases! Debian etc would prefer to work from a source release, and I believe we can encourage people to cover other platforms; FreeBSD for example. So as a first step, just pick a commit and tag it (or ask me to) A few of us can test on our own platforms (David on MacOSX etc) to widen the test base a little, and Joris can start the process for Debian. Then I can upload a source dist as above, or if you have a source release process, we will follow that under your guidance. I haven't looked into scripting uploads to SourceForge but I'm sure it's possible if we need it. - Brian _______________________________________________ Ghdl-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/ghdl-discuss
