[PHP-DEV] 5.3.0 stable delayed until next Tuesday

2009-06-24 Thread Lukas Kahwe Smith

Aloha,

As most of you following this list have noticed, alot of last minute  
stuff has been brought up. So it goes.
Johannes and Pierre have put in extra time in trying to still make it  
for a release tomorrow, however as the stream of patches and open  
issues has continued even today, we have decided to play it safe and  
move the release date to next Tuesday. We will package tomorrow  
evening and push out the release to mirrors next Monday.


Again we urge everybody to only commit into 5_3 after Johannes has  
reviewed the patch. Therefore all patches should be send to internals.  
That being said this is the list of things we are still looking into  
at this point:

- mysqlnd crash
- jvlad's sparc tmp is not being properly initialized by INIT_ZVAL  
issue

- possibly a crash fix in Date (Derick any news on that?)

Everything else will have to wait for 5.3.1, this includes:
- Stas's proposed change to make JSON optionally shared on windows
- Greg's openssl phar fix
- Christians spl_autoload_unregister closure fix
- David's Datetime SOAP addition
- Improvements to re2c parsing with certain file sizes
- etc.

Again we are trying to wrap things up here. So we are really focusing  
on the worst of segfaults/crashes etc.


regards,
Johannes and Lukas

Do you think it's worth to push out an RC5 and release it as 5.3.0 only 
changing the version number between them? I saw other projects doing this and I 
think it helps to prevent major issues due to last-time fixes. I have this 
feeling that 5.3.0 release is going to be traumatic!

Just my 2 cents.

Would it be possible to inject stuff into the upgrading file during that time?
I have a feeling that lots of stuff is missing from it.

The sooner the better as I like to run the final builds through my tests
to check if they are correct, and Pierre does the same with the Windows
builds and other hopefully do the same before officially announcing.

Best is if you keep me in the loop, I'll also follow the docs list a bit
closer (I'm subscribed but barely read it most of the time ...) I'll
also ping you before tagging to make sure I'm not missing work in
progress.
