Apparently you've committed the NAnt.VSNet.build from the main branch to the 0.8.3 branch. No problem, I've got the build happening. I'll commit my changes back to the branch before tagging the release. Barring any unexpected issues, RC2 will be out tonight. John C Barstow

[nant-dev] Delay in RC1a

2003-07-16 Thread John Barstow
I apologize for the delay in re-releasing RC1 as built with the 1.0 framework. The network admin gave away the machine I had with 1.0 installed on it, so I have been scrambling for a machine with the 1.0 framework installed. I have located such a machine, and am in the process of configuring it.

[nant-dev] NAntContrib branch for 0.8.3

Can someone with CVS write access create a branch for the upcoming 0.8.3 release? Ian says he has the project building and testing cleanly, so now is a good time to branch. The command is: cvs tag -b BRANCH-083 After running the command, you will still be on the main branch and people can start

The reason the unit tests were failing was because the INCLUDE and LIB environment variables were not set. We should add assertion checks for these environment variables in the unit tests so that a useful test failure message is generated. I have a TODO for myself, but it's a bite-sized task for

The NantContrib assemblies build just fine with the candidate 0.8.3, but the unit tests for NAntContrib fail to build. I expect to stage a release candidate in the next day or two, provided I can get the release notes written up and the majority of the NAntContrib unit tests passing in that

For what it's worth, here's my opinion. I'm trying to arrange things so releases will be less chaotic affairs, so that's my main bias in my arguments. NAntContrib should be distributed with NAnt. That means when we have a release, we build both and package all the binaries and
