Is it alright to do a couple of pre-0.8.3 builds before the real one (at least one)? I found that for the last release, people are more likely to test and send bug reports for a pre- build than a development build. Matt. John Barstow wrote: I'm hoping to do an 0.8.3 release sometime next

Matt: Is it alright to do a couple of pre-0.8.3 builds before the real one (at least one)? In light of this, and Gert's request to fit more features in before releasing, I wonder if NAnt might not benefit from doing time-boxed, instead of feature-boxed releases. If the project were to release

[nant-dev] Unit test faliures

After some investigation, it looks like the unit tests are failing ONLY when run by the NAnt build file. Running the tests with nunit-console or nunit-gui results in the unit tests passing. To reproduce, do a clean checkout of the source, change to the newly created nant directory, and run

Hi John, Not everything built with framework 1.1 will work with framework 1.0, because a lot of thing have been added to framework 1.1, it's more like everything built with 1.0 will run with 1.1, and even then, i'm not sure if there hasn't been downward compatibility breaking changes made in

One common practice (recommend by Microsoft gurus) is to increment your version number immediately _after_ a release, not right before a release. This means that you have plenty of time to debug any issues related to that version number change. I assume that's why the version is 0.8.3 in CVS
