Totally agree with you, Gilberto - I thought to post something similar but then I thought that it might be inappropriate towards people that develop GWT during their free time, however you are totally right - there should be *at least any planning and communication with the community *otherwise GWT looks like dying with last release being introduced more almost year ago.
And I totally agree that short and smaller releases will be way better and provide good feedback to the community that GWT is still alive instead of big major releases (not to talk that bug fixing would be way easier in such scenario). It would be good to hear feedback from people involved in the development process понеділок, 17 серпня 2015 р. 15:59:21 UTC+3 користувач Gilberto написав: > > I wish I could say that to my customers =P > > In my experience, saying "It will be released, when it is done" is the > same as saying "we don't have a planning" or "we are so bad at planning > that any release date we set will be postponed". > > Release fast, release often - is the motto of any agile development > practice, and not "release when everything is done, and don't communicate a > thing about what is being done in the process". > > I have a feeling that GWT is a "more-or-less" open source project: its > code is indeed open, but the development process is handled by some > companies, that have a will to leave everything to the community to handle, > but can't do because of internal stuff.
