Re: 4.1.4 Release Manager?

I believe we should always have a point release, based on the last fully stable and released version, ready for code check-in: Release manager identified, branch created, release-blocker flags created. That shortens the latency from identifying an urgent fix to having the fix in our users' han

Tools for building and checking a release candidate

Are there any tools to help put together an AOO release? If so, where are they? In particular, the binaries for each language for e.g. Windows will result from a build in a Windows environment. The release candidate groups the binaries by language, a transposition of the build matrix. Each b

Re: [Release 4.1.3] Overview of issues that are relevant

There are two types of issue. There is a very small set of issues that motivated 4.1.3. In addition, we are paying off technological debt due to not have routinely done point releases, mainly copying fixes for build issues from the trunk into the 4.1.3 branch. On 9/18/2016 1:21 PM, Marcus wrote:

I had installed 64-bit Cygwin installed here before I started on compiling AOO. I hit problems, and had to go to the recommended 32-bit Cygwin. However, things have changed a bit since then, so it may be worth seeing if it works. On 9/19/2016 8:59 AM, John D'Orazio wrote: ... I also read so
