Re: Next GNUstep release?
Hi, There hasn't been much progress over the last week. More bugs got reported than fixed over that time. We can either make a release now, with a lot of known issues, even some that weren't there a few weeks ago. Or delay the release indefinitely. Not fixed doesn't mean that it is not important. Perhaps some persons did not have time? Or perhaps some persons were not able to understand and fix the problems they found (like in my case?) Most of the newly reported bugs are for the Windows platform, which we didn't support that well on previous releases. Even with all this issues GNUstep is a lot more stable there then it used to be. Agreed, but smoothing out some stuff here and there On my laptop today I cannot start *any* application even after a full, clean build of core. On my letux Grr throws exceptions. On both machines things worked enough to be of daily use about 1-2 months ago... Of all the other newly reported bugs (and I regard the bug tracker as the definite list here) only the one I found yesterday looks like a show stopper to me. If the NIB loading changes in gui really broke Gorm, then we have to fix that before a release. Greg, could you please look into this and give some feedback? Ok, so I need to put the stuff I encounter on the bugtraker. If we could get that one issue out of the way I am still all for a release. We should have had a release months ago. I'd love to have at least the toolbar issue resolved. Windows is decent for me, except the "big black" GWorkspace issue. I hope to gain more insight this Weekend, if not fixes, at least new information. Riccardo ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
