Hi, +1 on the regular releases. I am perfectly aware that this is an open source project so nobody is entitled in asking anything. However with long standing releases it is getting difficult to justify use of GWT in my organization. It is much easier to carry custom patches or skip a buggy release in a fast pacing schedule.
@Jens thanks for the links. I always assumed you were an insider in GWT development. I am sure there must be a better way of documenting the GWT development than Jen's mail though... :-) On Sat, Jul 2, 2016 at 5:22 PM, Jens <[email protected]> wrote: > > As said above, Google doesn't really care about "releases", except for >> that they care enough about the community "outside" who, they know, do care >> about releases. >> > > @Thomas: And thats exactly why I think GWT will have a better life if we > would do fixed, automated monthly / quarterly releases directly from master > after they have run through Google testing to ensure a high degree of > stableness.
