Hi Chris,
Was there anyone else interested in a 2.8.4 release? Is anyone else using
2.8.3 at this
point or is everyone on trunk now?
We're using 2.8.3, but we have no real problem waiting for an eventual 3.0 or
whatever comes. Off the top of my head, there are no fixes that we absolutely
need. That's why I didn't respond to your questions about 2.8.3.1 or 2.8.4...
And I guess others are probably in the same position, given the underwhelming
response in this thread.
Another possible explanation is that the majority of the people who post
submissions are "trunk-centric". They are cutting-edge developers who think only
in terms of getting their fixes into trunk, as that is all they use. It doesn't
mean those fixes are not worth releasing in a refresh of the 2.8 branch.
I imagine the vast majority of 2.8.x users are relatively silent on this list,
or absent altogether. For this reason, the amount of discussion on osg-users
regarding a 2.8 refresh might not be the best way to decide whether or not to
move forward with such a refresh.
There *has* been a lot of discussion regarding 2.8.3 and VS2010 over the past
year. Several people have encountered the issue, and someone even created a git
repo that has this fix. Many users would benefit from this fix being in the
"official" repo.
