The SeaMonkey project has branched off comm-central for our upcoming
SeaMonkey2.1 release today.
You can find the repository for SeaMonkey2.1 in
|http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-2.0| if you clone from there, then
you can simply |client.py checkout| from the repo root to get all the
other required repo's, including mozilla-2.0.
comm-2.0 is string frozen, as of now, comm-central is not.
SeaMonkey developers should still CONCENTRATE on comm-2.0 for active
development as we near shipping seamonkey2.1, and will have to land
patches in both comm-central and comm-2.0 until we ship. (being sure not
to land any l10n changes in comm-2.0)
(below is what I ---tried--- to send out last night)
Hello,
As of tonight, I CLOSED comm-central for the comm-2.0 branch setup for
SeaMonkey.
For those who do not know, comm-2.0 is intended to be built with Gecko
2.0 for the upcoming SeaMonkey 2.1 release. Thunderbird/Calendar have
decided not to do a release based on Gecko 2.0 and instead will base
their next release on Gecko 5.0.
Since SeaMonkey is the only ones following Gecko2, and since our release
date is nearing, we have decided to branch comm-central now to avoid
further potential traps and issues.
Points:
* The comm-2.0 repo will be open for landings as early as tomorrow.
* Tonights nightly for comm-2.0 builds will be based off the
|hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-2.0| repository.
* comm-central (for suite/) will remain CLOSED until comm-2.0 is also open.
* When both repo's reopen, SeaMonkey development will still be focused
on SeaMonkey2.1 and all patches will need to double-land (see below)
* comm-2.0 will remain l10n frozen, and comm-central will be free to
take l10n updates for seamonkey when the trees reopen.
We need to really narrow in on SeaMonkey2.1-final and get this release
out the door, Firefox 4.0.1 is imminent, and likely to be the final .x
release off mozilla-2.0
There are still some minor bugs to fix for the comm-2.0 setup, but none
of them should drastically affect our plan.
See Bug 646804 for details.
Followup To mozilla.dev.apps.seamonkey (please respect) ask any and all
questions there.
