Re: 0.20.5rc3 (was Re: PDF Encryption: Clarification)
Forgive my ignorance, but can someone explain the argument for limiting the number of Release Candidates? If testing needs to be done, why not create snapshots that could be used for testing more widely. Since I don't currently use hyphenation, I don't want to wait for the hyphenation patterns to continue testing bug fixes for problems that are causing me to continue using 0.20.4 as my primary FOP, but I'd like to continue testing 0.20.5x. I really like the speed bump (40% is suh-weet!) I get when running 0.20.5rc 0.20.5rc2, but some of the bugs are showstoppers for me (especially 17472 15936). Perhaps it is just that I don't understand why we would want to limit the number of release candidates? Another potential problem, is that I'm having problems figuring out how to use our CVS system. Is there an FAQ somewhere? As for 0.20.5rc3, I'd like to see another Release Candidate ASAP (why wait for two weeks--other than the hope that more hyphenation patterns will be released). I figure if we put a new RC on the download page, people will use it and report any new bugs they find. ;-p Respectfully, Web Maestro Clay Christian Geisert wrote: Yes, another RC makes sense but I'm a bit unsure about the timeframe because I'd like 0.20.5rc3 to be the last RC before releasing 0.20.5 (i.e at best no changes after rc3) but there is still the issue with the hyphenation patterns which will probably take some to be solved as we we shouldn't use LPPL stuff (did I understand this right?) So what about rc3 in two weeks and then really stop with the maintenance branch? -- Clay Leeds - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Developer - Medata, Inc. - http://www.medata.com PGP Public Key: https://mail.medata.com/pgp/cleeds.asc - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

+1 for a 0.20.5rc3 ASAP (as Clay Leeds suggests). 0.20.5rc2 is bugged and I believe Jörg is tired of marking new bug reports as duplicates. :-) +1 for really (!) going to bugfixing-only mode in the maintenance branch. +1 for 0.20.5 being the last release from the maintenance branch. But being realistic, -0 on new bugfix release(s) if needed. Bugfixing only!!! 0.20.5a, 0.20.5b..., no 0.20.6. +1 for somebody providing funds so I can stay unemployed a little longer and invest more time in the redesign. I've got to get some money coming in again in about three months from now. The sooner the better. +1 for FOP enthusiasts start helping with the redesign. +1 for banning all lawyers to a small isolated pacific island. No seriously, I have one test case of grant submission running for over two weeks now. I haven't gotten any confirmation on that, yet. Ok, I was also shoving that before me, but I'm going to check on the status today. I promise. Once, I get the first through, I'll start the others.
