Is there any kind of timeline for the next release?
I don't want to be one of those 'is it out yet' people, but the botched m4
release has left things somewhat confused.
The website lists m4, and I think up until a few days ago some items pointed to
m4 docs, and some to m3. Right now it looks like this has been cleaned up
though and everything points to m3.
The downside of course is that the m4 documentation (for those foolish enough
to have upgraded) is nowhere to be found (at least, I'm unable to find it from
a cursory glance). There's also no documentation on the website at all about
the fact that m4 was silently withdrawn or found to be unusable, nor is there
anything that encouraged people not to use it.
Obviously releases go wrong sometimes (well, not often, but I guess it can
happen). Usually this is followed very quickly with a fixed release, but it'd
been over a week now with no updates that are visible to the casual user. I'm
subscribed to this list, follow the twitter feed, and check the website, and am
unable to get any sense of comfort from any of those.
I really like gradle, and I don't want to be a doom and gloom kind of person,
but I cannot in good conscience recommend it to anyone right now (based purely
on the glacial pace of releases for a tool that clearly still has a lot of
active development and exciting plans).
So Gradle devs, any chance of an update, or some soothing noises telling us
whats coming down the road and when?
