This sounds like a very good idea to me, especially the idea of publishing daily snapshots. Speaking of GNUstep bugfix releases, what happened to the release of version 1.13.1, that fixes the buffer overflow issue I reported ( https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?18366)? I've seen that the stable branch is tagged 1.13.1 now, but there's still no release made public, neither on the web page nor on the ftp. I know that your time is limited and this is all done on a volunteer basis, but this is certainly not a good sign for a framwork which wants to be used in professional applications. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame anyone on this. I'm happy that the patch came so quick, but it's sad that the bugfix release did somehow not come out yet, as the task of doing it should be easy compared to doing a bugfix. -Guenther _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
