This is not exact: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/gwt-steering/uv_WsmNkti0/discussion (*not* saying it's plain wrong either !) > GWT 2.8 milestone on GitHub is only 14%, there are only 3 closed issues > and the last release of GWT is almost a year now and only 1 person appears > to be working on the next release planned features if those issues are the > plan because there is no other apparent plan that has been laid out that I > can find accessible. > The migration of issues from Google Code to GitHub earlier this summer didn't keep the detailed "status" field, only a boolean open/close. At Google Code, we used to keep issues opened with a FixedNotReleased status until the next release (because, I believe, most people don't search for closed issues). Knowing that, if you look closer, you can see that 13 open issues assigned to Milestone 2.8 are actually "FixedNotReleased": https://github.com/gwtproject/gwt/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A2.8+FixedNotReleased But yes, the issue tracker needs some love, and I proposed a process (and have some open questions) to the Steering Committee. > There is no promotion on the main GWT site of the only currently scheduled > GWT conference and the normally already scheduled GWT.create conference, > there is no chatter about. > Conference organizers are probably the ones who should promote their conference; GWT core contributors don't have time for that. But anyone can promote the conferences, anywhere. The web site is open to contributions <http://www.gwtproject.org/makinggwtbetter.html#webpage> and it just happens that nobody (organizers, or anyone in the community) proposed (pull request or even just an issue) to promote the conference on the site. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GWT Contributors" group.
