Hmm, so it would be more an early tarball release instead of a real tech preview for users and developers. I wonder if packagers would really pick it up for early testing. Its 7 weeks before the final release not sure if they already think about packaging 1.10. We would need to make sure that such a package would really only be used for testing of the packaging itself and not going into any distribution channels. In the end we will only find out when going down this path I fear. I have the revs from the last commits before the second merge window opened and will tag it as well as creating tech preview tarballs later today or tomorrow. regards Stefan Schmidt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
