Hello Midgard Community. You are just reading the release notes to the next RC vor Midgard 1.4.3. Upload to the Midgard Website [1] is already done. This is the last RC for 1.4.3 to confirm that all bugfixes are working correctly.
[1] http://www.midgard-project.org/download RedHat and Debian Packages will not be created for the RC 2. Changes since RC-1 include: - Fixes for the often-occuring SegFaults discovered by Piotras and Nico Kaiser - More fixes to the default parameters of the packages, for "standard" installations the defaults should work now every time - Parser fix for acciociative Arrays in HTML-Mode is confirmed to work and is now included in the distribution. - Confirmed that the RC-2 works with PHP 4.2.x on a Debian unstable box. Changes from 1.4.3-RC-1 - lots and lots of bugfixes - A new parser that resides in midgard-lib and works for everything - New data packages with Asgard 1.4.2 - Default Parameters that should maximize backwards-compatibility for all parts of the Midgard Framework. This release does _not_ include: - mod_midgard-preparser, since there is at lease one blocking bug in it Please test this release as far as it is possible and report any bugs at [2]. Note, that Midgard is currently in feature freeze until all major open bugs are fixed, so if you have any feature requests, you can file them, but I won't gurantee you how long it will take to get them done. Contributions are welcome of course. If there is no blocker in the current code, I will officially (this time really) release 1.4.3 next week. [2] http://bugs.midgard-project.org/ Known bugs: - Repligard's CDATA Encoding (current default) fails, when texts contain the element ]]> and there are problems in the binary-safe mode of Repligard (Bug #73) These bugs will not be solved in 1.4.3 because rather extensive work seems to be neccessary to solve these. But we do what we can. Bugtesting Request: The more people test this release the better. Please drop me [3] a short mail even if you experience _no_ problems with the current release so that I can get a rough idea about 1.4.3's stability.
