If you are not aware, 7.0.11 was release yesterday. This will most likely be the last 7.0 branch bug fix release. We will continue to back port fixes to this branch if they are trivial to back port so users who continue to run the 7.0 branch will be able to run testing builds.

Stable version 8.0.0 was tagged yesterday and package builds are in progress. We will officially release 8.0.0 in the next day or so. The version 8.0 branch has been created and bug fixes for 8.0.1 are already being merged. I suspect we will have a fairly short development cycle for 8.0.1.

The development branch is now open for version 9 feature merges. Just a reminder for members of the lead development team, we are processing new feature merge requests from developers who are not members of the lead development team before merging our own new feature branches. The goal is to keep the number of merge conflicts for new developers to a minimum.

Thank you to everyone who made the 7.0.11 and 8.0.0 releases possible. It's been a lot of hard work by everyone in the library, documentation, package, infrastructure, and lead development teams to make this possible.

Kind Regards,

Wayne
