Folks: At PyCon, I was excited find out that Tahoe has become a commonly- known project within the Python community. For example, it would come up casually in conversation between two people that I didn't know.
Brian persuaded me that it is valuable to "release early, release often". What is currently in trunk has substantial improvements over tahoe-1.3.0. I mentioned some of those features that are already there in my previous mail: http://allmydata.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2009-March/001381.html Since then, Brian committed garbage collection and, yesterday, an important optimization in processing the Merkle Tree for download of really big files (multi-GB). I'd like to put out a stable release of Tahoe tomorrow, Friday, March 3. Before then we should try to make sure that there are no regressions in which trunk has a bug that 1.3.0 didn't. Let's call it "1.4.0" instead of "1.3.1" in honor of the important new garbage collection feature. There are several tickets that I still want someone to look at before we tag the 1.4.0 release, because they might indicate a regression or an "unable to install on my platform". See The Roadmap for a complete list: http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/roadmap . Please jump in and test current trunk or examine the bugs listed on the Roadmap! Thanks!
