Time to say goodbye to Mac OS PPC, IMHO. Malte.

Last week I posted a note pointing to a draft 3.4 release plan on the wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4+Release+Plan A few of you have step up to volunteer for some tasks. This is great. This is just a draft, so feel free to modify, add additional high-level tasks, etc. Some of the items on the wiki are not tasks for individual volunteers, but things we need to agree on before we can release. For some of these items, we should try to come to a consensus now, so we can ensure that the plan accounts for everything we want to do. So one item from the wiki: What platforms do we want to release 3.4 binary packages for? With 3.3.0 we had: Windows Intel MSI Linux Intel RPM Linux Intel DEB Linux x86-64 RPM Linux x86-64 DEB Mac OS Intel DMG Mac OS PPC DMG Solaris Intel PKG Solaris Sparc PKG Do we want to do the same with 3.4? Add ports? Remove ports? We obviously have active porting work around BSD and OS/2. Is the intent to have them be Apache releases? Or to be released separately? Personally, I'd temper "what we want" with "what can we accomplish well". In other words, what platforms do we think we can cover, from a dev and test perspective, so we can have a solid 3.4 release, one were we can confidently ask the IPMC to approve a release, and be proud to read the reviews? There might be one answer for AOO 3.4 and an expanded answer for AOO 4.0, -Rob
