While I, too, am excited about ADDRESS WITH and am sure we will move
much more quickly with Rick's involvement than if I were tackling it
alone, I cannot estimate how long this will take to complete. So, my
recommendation is to NOT hold the release of 5.0.0 for any longer than
necessary to resolve the other issues that have already been
identified. We can do a 5.1.0 when ADDRESS WITH is ready and/or the
RXAPI issues are resolved. FWIW.

Moritz,
After Gil’s talk I am also excited about ADDRESS WITH (and the fact that it has
been taken up by Rick) so we might hold off the freeze for some time until we
have all infrastructure and installers ready (and maybe have ADDRESS WITH).
Maybe this gives us also time to look into the portable version again. I
personally think this would be a great boost for takeup.
I remember you had a set of patches to turn the sockets of rxapi into pipes. I
do not remember if this was windows-only or also included linux/macos.
The issues with rxapi:
- you must be authorized to run it on its port
- the firewall must allow access (cost me great headaches on Z, where the
standard image for a Linux VM was very restrictive, and you got a timeout and
no message)
- you must be authorized to start it, so that means a service on windows or
some systemd / startup item
- it writes a PID file so whoever starts it, must be authorized to write there
Thing is, solutions must work for the three main platforms, that is the reason
of my question.
best regards,
René
