Freudian typo.  It's hard to commit to a feature freeze, even for just a
week.

Sigh.

Proofread, Jacob, proofread.

I assume you mean the opposite of this.

The last push to 1.0

2008-08-27 Thread Jacob Kaplan-Moss

Hi folks --

Right, so this is it.

We've got about a week until the scheduled release of Django 1.0, and
the milestone shows 86 open tickets. It's time to put our heads down
and get this release out. A few notes:

We're not in complete and total feature freeze. This means that the
only things we should be working on for the next week are fixing true,
verified bugs. This also means that if you report a feature request,
it'll get automatically pushed to post-1.0 regardless of the merits.

We're also in string freeze so that translators have the next week to
get their translations as complete as possible. Any string marked for
translation cannot be changed. This means that if you're working on a
patch that touches translated strings, we'll ask you to write around
them.

Don't expect to see much activity from the core developers on the
community lists and channels. If there's something that needs
attention from one of us, make a note and repost in about two weeks if
we've not gotten back to you by then. I, at least, am going to pretty
much ignore the mailing lists for the next weekish while we get this
release out.

Finally, keep in mind that although "1.0" seems huge -- mostly since
we've been working on it for so long -- it's only the *first* of what
I expect to be an increasingly awesome set of releases. 1.0 will be
missing quite a few things we've had to put off, but 1.1 will be even
better, and 1.2 will kick the crap out of 1.1.

So let's do the best we can, but remember that it'll only get better from here!

Jacob
