I finally managed to go though all the patches which accumulated in Gnome bugzilla and do the various necessary cleanups to try to get a release. There is however *many* changes, especially on the portability side which I just can't test myself (including many changes on various Windows toolchains). So I just made a release candidate of 2.8.0
ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/ look for libxml2-2.8.0-rc1.tar.gz, there is also rpms generated on my Fedora 16 box for those interested. The code seems to work okay, I have been running with the changes as I added them and my system didn't blew up, it passes valgrind, there doesn't seems to be leaks at least on the main paths, so I think it's time for more general testing. Please give it a try, I will make other rc release if needed, and will try to shoot for a final 2.8.0 release a week from now ! I know a number of people waited for an official release, please help me finish by testing it and report problems if you find some :-) thanks in advance, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ [email protected] | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/ _______________________________________________ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
