Hi all, triggered by the API redesign discussion following up on the hydrogen adder problem, it might be wise to discuss release plans. Since we do not have no formal release managers at this moment (that's two vacancies in the project! you can earn some good CDK fame here), it might be useful to summarize the state of things.
1. trunk/ * JUnit4 transition ongoing * Java5 cleanup ongoing * but is stabilizing (*) * it is much more performant (**) *) there are problems with IP calculation, reactions, etc, which I hope to address next week Friday **) someone reported on IRC SMILES parsing going down from 4 hours (cdk-1.0.x) to 5 seconds (trunk). Really. Not suprising for those who are aware of the problems with using the AllRingsFinder algorithm, which simply features a combinatorial explosion for detecting all rings... (E.g. see CDK News) 2. cdk-1.0.x/ * needs QSAR descriptor fixes from trunk/ * needs removal of broken code (IP calculation, structgen code) (***) * remains to have hydrogen adding and bond deduction problems (****) * will see End-of-Support this year, unless a release manager steps up ***) Less than 1% of the unit tests will fail after removal of these unstable bits ****) which is rewritten in trunk/ which does a much better job. This cannot be fixed in this branch. Because there are no active release managers at this moment, it is impossible to give an ETA for release.
