Hey guys,

I know our free time all comes in spurts and often not in sync with each other, but I'd like to try to push these final things to completion which need attention to wrap up this next release.

Thanks to everyone who have reported bugs here and the bug tracker and who have submitted patches and updates. I will work on resolving these bugs quickly as well as being sure updated translations which have been submitted are applied.

The French versifications which were submitted by domcox and bundled up by refdoc I believe were committed a few months back, but we need to be sure. There were some questioned posted on the list recently. Can we confirm or deny we have the latest in trunk?

Versification mapping questions are still outstanding. Костя, DM, you both have written the mapping code for our C++ and Java libraries respectively. You both seem to have different ways to record the mapping between v11n systems. Is there one definition format we can use moving forward? Can you open a discussion about this? It would be really nice to define mappings once, put them in version control and then write a utility which can read these files and produce what each of you need to function-- if you cannot optimally read this one definition directly from your code. Before we go too much further down the road here, it would be nice to discuss this now.

We might still have some outstanding issues with IBR contributed patches. I believe we rolled back a commit in osis2mod which may have fixed one or more issues with the reports from IBR and thus eliminating the need for the IBR patches, but I am not sure. We need to review this.

Finally, in the spirit of our push toward 2.0, I will continue to standardize another set of method names and possibly rename a class or two. As always, the old method names will be marked at deprecated so you will receive warnings, but they will not be removed so as not to break any frontend code. When 2.0 is finally released, all deprecated methods and class names will be removed.


These are the issue I plan to work on over the next few days and I would so appreciate your collaboration to help bring this long overdue release to light. If there are issue which you feel need immediate attention beyond these, please bring them up to remind me. We probably need new threads about each of these items, individually, so I'd ask that you not reply to this thread regarding any of these individual items, but start a thread with an appropriate subject.

Thanks for sharing in work together. May God bless our efforts to bring this release to fruition,

Troy
