Hi, If all goes well, the plan is to have 0.8.0-rc1 tagged and released this weekend.
According to the release policy, a (hopefully quite short, thanks to the review system) feature freeze stage will follow aimed at ironing out possible build issues, regressions and segfaults. Other release candidates might be produced if needed until all the blockers are fixed. So if you think some important functionality is not merged yet but really needs to become part of this release or there're other issues with the current plan (e.g. we need to review and merge more patches than it's possible till the weekend), please say so NOW. Release highlights (NEWS) are being prepared in this change: http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/1881/ . What I personally would like to see merged are (in no particular order): 1. Disable DMA for MIPS: http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/1936/ . I'm proposing to cherry-pick this change as it seems to make OpenOCD compatible with more different MIPS cores and should minimise possible regressions after the quite extensive changes we had recently in this area. 2. Release blocker: Gdb registers and RTOS support: http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/2054 . This is a real regression and I think can be merged as is, and probably a nicer solution would be found later in the development cycle. 3. Tiva C flash driver and configs: http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/1869/3 . The boards are quite common now (and TI was giving them away recently with some coupon code). I haven't reviewed the code myself, but it would be nice to have them supported, I guess. 4. Release blocker: deprecate ft2232: http://openocd.zylin.com/1899 . Users should stop using outdated howtos. 5. lpc1xxx configs: http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/1896/ . 6. I would also appreciate if somebody reviewed my dist-related series from http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/1911 . Have fun, and happy hacking! -- Be free, use free (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) software! mailto:[email protected]
