Subject: [osg-users] 2.8.3 released!

Hi all -- The OSG v2.8.3 final release has just been tagged.
Congratulations and 
many thanks to everyone in the community who pitched in and helped me
get this 
out the door. The community effort really caught a lot of issues that I
would 
never have caught on my own, so again, thanks!

It's hard to believe it's been 6 months since 2.8.2. The 2.8.3 release
takes new 
functionality, long available on trunk and in developer releases, and
makes 
those features available in a stable release for developers to use in
production 
releases of their OSG-based apps.

I don't have write access to the downloads page, so I've made a source
ZIP 
available here, until it can be moved to the OSG server:
   http://www.skew-matrix.com/osg283/OpenSceneGraph-2.8.3.zip
Robert, if you could move that, I'd appreciate it.

Does anyone want to volunteer to build binaries? Preferably, someone who
has 
done it in the past, so that the packages remain consistent from release
to release.

After the downloads page is in shape, I'll push the press release out to

opengl.org and khronos.org.

Use this URL to svn checkout the 2.8.3 final release tag:
 
http://www.openscenegraph.org/svn/osg/OpenSceneGraph/tags/OpenSceneGraph
-2.8.3

The release status page serves as the release notes:
   http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Support/283release

And the press release is still located here:
   http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/News/Press/OSG2.8.3

The only issue I'm aware of with 2.8.3 at this point is a problem I
discovered 
with the 3DS exporter handling certain MatrixTransforms, possibly an
issue with 
how the matrix decomposition handles corner-case matrices. The behavior
is the 
same on svn trunk and not a show stopper in my opinion. I've exchanged
offline 
emails with Sukender and supplied him with a reproducer .osg model.

Again, thanks to all for the assistance with v2.8.3.
