The former still requires maintainer tools like Autoconf, Automake, Texinfo... I don't think they are easier to test than a CVS checkout. It is better to test a real candidate of what the release will be, IMHO. Besides, since generated files are not under CVS we don't know what yours will look like. We should test the files that you will distribute, not the files that we can build with our own versions of the autotools.

If you have a suggestion Robert> on where to announce the pre-release, let us know. I sent you a private mail entitled `RFC: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' on January 15. (Only Akim, Jim, Pavel, and Paul answered to this; I was hopping comments from you and Bruno.) Since then I've asked for the creation of this list, but haven't heard anything from the GNU sysadmins yet (the ticket ID is [gnu.org #17673]). Presently, Autoconf and Automake prereleases are announced to {autoconf,automake,libtool,bug-gnu-utils}@gnu.org. Also for Automake prereleases I have been spamming anybody listed in ChangeLog entries since the last release (this is mainly to make sure bug reporters have a chance to check that their bug is fixed before the real release). -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz _______________________________________________ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
