Evening everyone!
So the 1.4.0 release is finally completed after much delay (my
bad, my apologies!), and now we're already moving up to 1.4.1.
Tonight I did quite some merging into the release_1_4 branch of
some of the work that has been happening on trunk, but not all of it.
I'm currently leaving out:
1) r23242: Ignoring SSL certificates;
2) r23098, r23125, r23238, r23248, 23362 and 23552: "New options
for configure flags (C|CPP|CXX|LD)FLAGS and logic to handle that
and backward compatibility." per Paul's commit log (original and
subsequent commits);
3) r23246, r23249 and r23291: New -I${prefix}/include and -L$
{prefix}/lib compile time flags;
4) r23549, 23550 and r23553: Moving port tests into a test
subfolder in order to portindex them;
5) Universal variant.
On the one hand, I can't find my commit log mails for the work on
the universal variant, so I'd appreciate it if someone could
annotate my list with the proper revision numbers; and on the other
hand, I'm not sure if 2) and 3) can be split like that, so (Paul)
do correct me if I'm wrong. In any case, I'd like to discuss which
of those changesets we're going to be including in 1.4.1, so
everyone should feel free to ventilate all the pro's and con's
about each of them, if any. We should, however, keep in mind that
1.4.1 is meant to be a minor, bug fixing release over 1.4.0 and
therefore should not try to offer big and probably still
experimental new features like the universal variant, in my
opinion; 1.5 seems to me like more appropriate for that. But,
again, I'm willing to be proven otherwise.
Could you please list what you're *not* leaving out?
What's the point in annotating what you are leaving out?
Can we simply get rid of releases, considering the time it takes you
to sort them out?
Paul
