did you get around to add handling for usr-move to the relative directory 
references for exports-files ?
Otherwise I'll see whether I find time this week.

That discussion concluded by deciding to wait until after 2.8.11.

I think it will be better to leave it because then the test will
expose the change in behavior and can be used to cover the policy.

Agreed.

Great, thanks.

Stephen,

We originally wanted to start the 2.8.11 release candidate series at
the end of January.  We've delayed it while your usage requirements
feature has cooked.  Even last week you were polishing up a few subtle
corrections, so it was worth the wait.

Normally we try to avoid delaying a new release for a feature still
under development but this one required such pervasive changes that
it would have been impractical to develop it on a separate branch.
Since it is in master we have to wait until it is ready before we
can release again.  However, there are many other features and bug
fixes since 2.8.10 for which people are awaiting 2.8.11.

Do you feel the feature has become mature enough for release?  Are
there any other tests or use cases under development elsewhere on
which we should wait?


Hi,

I have not tried again to implement a proof of concept of the list 
handling after the discussion about it last week. This week I don't 
think I can commit to it either, but I'm not overly concerned about it 
after the discussion we had. It might make sense to put the unit test 
change from


 
https://gitorious.org/~steveire/cmake/steveires-cmake/commit/96ec58003de583794fb7440fc4b3521f272a26d6

in, but then again, the behavior of code like that won't change until 
the next release, and a policy will probably be needed anyway.


I don't have other new tests or features aimed for 2.8.11. It would be 
nice to 'fix' cmGeneratorExpression::Split handling of escaped 
semicolons and square brackets, but I don't think I'll have time to do 
that, and I think it can wait until the following release anyway.


So, I think it's mature enough for release now, yes.

All the best,

Steve.
