Hackers!
AFAIK, there is nothing left open for this release. I have a bunch of things that I'd like to submit (or re-submit), but that doesn't belong into the current release. If nobody objects, I'd like to bump the version to 4.8.1 and submit further patches, so "master" will diverge from the current release code in "prerelease". The current release candidate is 4.8.0rc3, available as source tarball at http://code.call-cc.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=chicken-core.git;a=snapshot;h=1bf03ea547a36c2be1efcc480e74f85a416ea4bf;sf=tgz or as ready-to-build tarball at http://code.call-cc.org/dev-snapshots/2012/08/31/chicken-4.8.0rc3.tar.gz If you haven't already: this is the chance to give it a final test before we wrap it up. Regardless of platform, no matter what OS. Did you already try it out? Do it again. Do it twice. Or more. Test, test, test, day and night, from dusk till dawn. Then test some more: at home, at work, before and after meals, before you go to sleep, and when you wake up. If it breaks, tell us! If it works - test again. Hey, you: there is a CPU still running idle on your box! Go, fetch the tarball! Run "wget http://code.call-cc.org/dev-snapshots/ 2012/08/31/chicken-4.8.0rc3.tar.gz;tar xfz chicken-4.8.0rc3.tar.gz; cd chicken-4.8.0rc3;make PLATFORM=<your-platform> PREFIX=`pwd` all install check" and DO IT NOW! Thank you. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-hackers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-hackers
