I'm planning to tag 2.1.5 in about 12 h (when I wake up in the morning.)

 #40266 should go in before release (there's no risk of breaking
anything that currently works; civ1 ruleset is completely broken
without this patch anyway) but no other stuff.

I'm of course open to postponing any release in the case there are  
showstoppers.

Is Jason's patch in PR#40258 taking care of all errors you've seen, Marko?

I believe that it's worth making maintenance releases as soon as there are  
any crash/memory leak/security fixes.

BTW, I just remembered PR#40250 is a blocker for me making the release.

 Then I suggest that we postpone 2.1.5 one week, if that's possible
for Daniel. I should have time for looking into the gcc 4.3 problem
early next week.

 I only noticed these problems when compiling Freeciv for Ubuntu
Intrepid (pre-alpha distribution), which uses gcc 4.3.1 release
candidate.

 Major releases: I definitely agree. Currently new features
implemented immediately after branching live years in our svn before
they are in any release = really used.
 Minor releases: S2_1 is already quite mature, just occasional minor
fixes go in. No point in making releases identical to previous one :-)



 I'll be away until Monday.

In my opinion the fixes for S2_1 that I have encountered recently are
all rather minor and could wait for later; I am still more focused on working
on the editor. What might be nice is to release 2.1.5 so it can be used
for the first 2.1.x longturn game (which will probably start in a week or two),
which will give some good testing data and should find more bugs.

I don't know much at all about the gcc bug (actually I had 4.3 installed
a while ago, but since I had some problems not just with freeciv I am
now using 3.4.6).

Since I don't know how much hassle it is to make a full release for
freeciv I would tend to support more releases more often. Since then
the program can be advertised on various sites and users can have
the feeling that progress is being made. ;)

 If we release 2.1.5 without fix for this, we need to release 2.1.6
rather soon. I believe that otherwise there could be rather long time
between 2.1.5 and 2.1.6. So yes, I think we should postpone 2.1.5.
 Of course, if someone else plans to make lot of fixes to S2_1, making
2.1.6 release soon after 2.1.5 more sensible, situation is quite
different.

Is this reason enough to postpone the 2.1.5 in your opinion?

 Freeciv doesn't compile with current gcc 4.3 branch, and 4.3.1 will
be released any day now.

 Well, if one tries to sync this with my personal timetable, it would
make sense to release 2.1.5 one week later.

[Freeciv-Dev] 2.1.5

2008-05-23 Thread Daniel Markstedt
There's been a month since 2.1.4 and I've seen a number of fixes
since. I propose preparing a 2.1.5 maintenance release with ETA next
weekend.

What do you think?
