Re: [boinc_dev] [boinc_alpha] 7.8.2 released

[Juha Sointusalo]

I don't know if my suggestion of including account manager fix prompted
this question. I think there has been quite a lot of changes to account
manager code. If the fix to non stop account manager contacts isn't easily
separated from other changes, that is, it would pull lot of unrelated
changes, then we just have to forget about including it in 7.8.3.

I agree with Charlie. 7.10 should have a good amount of testing, say, 2+
weeks. If it doesn't have any hard bugs, great. But it might have and it
might take 2+ months to fix bugs. Compare that to 7.8.3. You build it
today, we test it and it should be good to release next week.

[boinc_dev] VirtualBox 5.2 - vboxwrapper update

[Jacob Klein]

Hey folks,

Today, Oracle announced that VirtualBox 5.2 is now in "Release Candidate 1" 
status, which is available for testing... after having 3 successful beta 
releases.

I believe we will want to have vboxwrapper updated, around the same time 
VirtualBox 5.2 is finalized. That way, it will be available for projects (like 
RNA World) to incorporate into their apps, so users will have the opportunity 
to be on the latest versions as quickly as possible. Especially since Windows 
10 updates tend to break older versions of VirtualBox.

So, this email is just a reminder, that a vboxwrapper update might be necessary 
soon.. after VirtualBox 5.2 is finalized in the upcoming days/weeks.

Thank you,
Jacob Klein

[boinc_dev] Automatic build of PR 2149 may fail

[Charlie Fenton]

I have create PR #2149 for my feature branch Mac_OS10_3_Screensaver_Fix off 
master. However, I'm assuming we will be building a 7.8.3 before 7.9, so these 
changes will need to be merged into the 7.8 branch before master.

The Xcode project in master builds and links keyword.cpp and keyword.h, which 
are not present in the 7.8 branch, so this commit does not include those. As a 
result, the automatic build assuming it will be merged into in master may fail. 

The link to the PR is 

Cheers,
--Charlie
