We are preparing 0.13.0 release on the base of the master/staging branch of Github OpenSC/OpenSC. Now it's at rc1. The candidates have been relatively well tested with some cards. The nightly builds and release candidates are on the OpenSC file server and in CI service. My intention is to publish the next major release during the last two weeks of November. There are still few regression issues with MacOS and old cards. I guess it's a good occasion to migrate the project. What is the procedure to follow when publishing a new major release ? > * discussions about new server / some migration / some improvement > etc. are similar old, no significant results yet > > While there have been some proposals, e.g. in the thread about the > future of the server, there hasn't been any real > discussion, no back and forth about the merrits of the different > proposals, and no convergence on one option or decission > by anyone. > > It seems to me the state of the project is defunct: while there are > requests, proposals, options and offerings, we are not > getting towards a decission or action it seems, as noone decides > anything or gets people to agree or to do things. > > I haven't touched a smart card in over a year, so don't expect me to > do anything - that wouldn't work. > > But if anyone is still concerned about the project, I think it is time > you take action.

I'll have more free time: - sources: all sources will migrate to github; - CI: CI server is currently hosted by 'opensc.fr' ; - download: on the same platform can be hosted the file server; - TRAC (wiki?): it seems that Peter Stuge proposed to do something with Trac. Peter, if you are here, can you take this part, or at least explain how it could be done, please? If no suggestions, Trac can also be hosted by 'opensc.fr' . - mailling list: the same, if no other suggestions, I'm ready to install/migrate it to 'opensc.fr' platform. Would be nice if one of the experts explain what is the actions to follow for such migration. > Regards, Andreas Kind wishes, Viktor. > _______________________________________________ > opensc-devel mailing list > opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org > http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel > _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
