[Webware-devel] 0.8 beta status.

[Stuart Donaldson]

We have a few options on 0.8 right now, and I wanted to toss them out to see if there are strong opinions either way. Any code changes require further beta testing, and therefore more time before final release of 0.8.

Here are the options I put forward to consider:

a) Release 0.8 right now, without the mkstemp fix or any recent
patches, but with updates to the version numbers in the
documentation.

b) Put out 0.8b3 with the mkstemp fix that Geoff checked
in a few days ago. Let this sit out for a couple days
to verify the mkstemp fixes.

c) Put out 0.8b3 with the mkstemp fix, and a couple of
other minor patches. Let this sit out there for a couple
more days to verify.


Geoff had asked if someone could test the mkstemp fixes he applied to the trunk under Linux. Has anyone had a chance to do this?

I like the idea of providing compatibility with Python 2.3 even though it is only in alpha. But this requires at least a few days as a short beta cycle.

My leaning right now is to go with option (b), puting out 0.8b3 tonight with only the mkstemp and documentation changes from 0.8b2. Then over the weekend, roll the version numbers and release 0.8 unless there are problems specific to the 0.8 beta changes.
Any comments?
