* Jean-Baptiste Quenot:

So   the  samples   need  to   be  adjusted   to  use   the  old
JXTemplateGenerator

This is  why we  should vote for  a *release*  preferrably already
deployed on  the zone and  not just for  the current state  of the
branch.  Last-minute changes can have nasty side-effects...

I see your point, but even without changing our current procedures, proper testing of the release would have shown the bug.

I regret not voting -1 on the release last week instead of -0, as I didn't have time to test it and IIRC we had no precise testing reports, just some folks saying "seems to work for me".

We should have the courage to delay a release if our resources don't allow us to test it properly, and maybe work with temporary branches for releases, to avoid a too long code freeze.

If there is a Summer of Code this year, I think we should have a project to complete our automated tests - in this case, just testing that the Ajax sample page comes up correctly at the HTML level would have shown the problem.

Hmm..maybe two projects actually: one for plain HTML tests and one for automated tests of Ajax stuff.
