As an outsider, it does seem that GUI needs a few weeks of feature
freeze and bug fixing, so I wouldn't
give up on that just because it needs to be organized somehow ;-)
Could you please give an explanation of this impression? Was this a
general statement that before any gui release we should have such a
period or was this based on any specific know limitation of gui?
It's a general statement. The GUI is complicated because of all the
interactions.
A change in one place might break something somewhere else and which
would
seem completely unrelated ;-) (I blame the API, but you could
conceivably blame
the implementation)
Because of that, I'd expect the GUI to need even more bug fixing than
the rest ?
For the non-graphical stuff (gnustep-make, gnustep-base, jigs,
SQLClient,
WebServer, WebServices, etc) that we use at work, we are very keen on
having
very stable and bug free releases. We almost don't care about new
features.
But we need very stable software. So a long bug fixing phase is
really good. :-)
I would imagine most other users appreciate very stable software
too. :-)
Thanks
