Hi,
I have decided to stop merging revisions from Lazarus trunk to the
fixes_0_9_26 branch. There are two reasons:
1. The differences between trunk and the fixes branch have become
too many, over a thounds revisions. It is difficult to oversee their
relations and dependencies, so I cannot guarantee the quality of the
fixes branch just by looking at the patches and revision logs.
2. I want to focus on the 0.9.28 release rather than maintaining
0.9.26.3 and working on a 0.9.26.4 release.
So, from now on nobody from the current Lazarus maintains the 0.9.26.3
branch. If somebody from the community is using the Lazarus fixes branch
on a daily basis and want to extend its life, then that is possible. The
new maintainer would supply me a list of revisions to be merged and
tests the fixes branch. I would do the actual merging and keep the
snapshots of the fixes branch alive. If you are interested, you can
contact me and we can work out the details.
Vincent
