S2_4 will be branched in 6 days (2-Nov) Currently there is 90 feature patches targeted to 2.4. I'm going to go through my own patches soon, and I hope other will do same for their patches. There is also tickets opened or mainly handled by already retired maintainers. I'll close, postpone, or take those.
We're not extremely strict that all features for 2.4 must be committed before branching. Select patches can go in to both TRUNK and S2_4 after branching. Sooner the better - rules in stable branch get tighter as it gets more mature. We've not yet decided freeze dates for datafile format or network protocol. If you have some input (namely you know patch that needs to go in before freeze) about these, now is good time to speak. As we don't have freeze dates yet, even less we can have date for first beta. I do hope that we can release one before year changes. Bug tracker has 72 bugs targeted to 2.4. Patch tracker has 11 patches targeted to 2.5 waiting for trunk to switch to 2.5 cycle. - ML _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
