Gosh how time flies. 3.5 is nearing the end of its security maintenance
period, and as such the patches have slowed down. But we got a couple
recently--all having to do with web technologies--so it's probably time
to make another release. I propose to release rc1 in two weeks, and
final two weeks after that.
Specifically:
Sunday Jun 28 - 3.5.9rc1
Sunday Jul 12 - 3.5.9 final
Of course, since we're in the security-fixes-only period, these will all
be source-code only releases.
Let me know if this is too soon for you. My suspicion is it's no
problem. It's mainly one developer filing security patches for 3.5
anyway (hi Victor!) and I'll contact him directly to make sure.
3.5 will be 5 years old this August, at which point we'll formally end
3.5 support. I expect there'll be only one more release after that,
3.5.10, and that'll be it. At which point, at last! you'll be rid of me
as a release manager! Surely on that day the programming world will
breathe a collective sigh of relief.
Best wishes,
