Re: Time to push on for 4.2.0

[Matthias Seidel]

Just FYI:

The Windows build from buildbot and my local build based on revision
1828829 work fine for me.

 My suggestion would be that that gets committed ASAP so we
 can test it. We then svn copy trunk to a AOO420 branch and
 start focusing on getting a 4.2.0 GA release out.

I think it would take about 2 weeks for the most essential items.

But sadly my Windows build is crashing on startup and my FreeBSD build is
crashing during the build in main/offapi due to some kind of memory bug in
idlc (either due to changes in FreeBSD or corruption of my system files),
so sadly I first need a few days to investigate and possibly reinstall my
setups.

I'll keep you updated.

+1 from me. After the below would be a good time to create
the 4.2.0-dev branch from trunk.

Do you have a timeframe for the below?
