Hi Robert,
A couple of factors are at play - one we all have our own work to get on with and testing release candidates is a pain... it takes time and effort out of already full schedules, so we'll want to avoid a drawn out testing period and we'll also want to pick a period when developers are available to put time into such a release effort.
On this subject, as I said in another thread, this week is pretty bad for me. Next week is a bit better if you want to get 2.8.1 out before the end of the month. I should be able to get in some testing next week.
perhaps the first step would be for members of the community to set up nightly builds for the OSG-2.8 once again so we can study how the code base is standing.
My nightly build is still running every night around midnight, machine is WHITESTAR. It builds from SVN, and is still succeeding too, it seems, since 2.8.
I can't do releases without community support though, so I'd very much like feedback from the community on when you feel you might have time available to help out test and what items you might see as priorities.
I'm always willing to help test, time is tight this week but I will help as I can.
