Additionally, before actually doing the release, the goals for the release need to be laid out. A Trac milestone should be created and the tickets which need to be resolved in order to meet the release goals should be associated with it. Then developers will probably need to be prodded in the right direction to get the tickets closed. Of course, at this point there's probably far more good to be done by releasing something very close to the current trunk than by delaying further to get more fixes or features in. And thank you very much for volunteering. - Josh _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
