I don't expect this to be the case. FormEncode's code is not updated much, and releases are not frequent. I don't want to change that. You shouldn't want that either -- a nice stable and boring FormEncode means one less thing you have to worry about tracking. So I feel pretty confident that translations will substantially increase the number of FormEncode releases. Of course, if the code isn't changing then getting an updated FormEncode isn't really a problem either I suppose. Only if people didn't want to upgrade FormEncode would this be a problem, and that shouldn't be a problem if I don't make backward-incompatible changes in FormEncode (and no such changes are planned). > ACK. > > At the moment I don't see any differences to normal Formencode > development.

OTOH, making a release of a subpackage doesn't need to be hard either, just "python setup.py svntag --version=whatever-next --next-version=whatever-next+1; cd ../formencode.lang.de-whatever-next; python setup.py register sdist bdist_egg upload". -- Ian Bicking | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://blog.ianbicking.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
