Folks: We're making some progress on Tahoe-LAFS v1.7.1:
http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/roadmap It is due to be released in seven days on Saturday, the 17th. If there aren't enough improvements committed to trunk by then to justify announcing it to the world then instead I will just decree that we roll everything into what will eventually become v1.8.0. I called for Platform Masters [1] and FreeStorm answered the call to support Windows. Hopefully this means Windows support will be improved in v1.7.1 release. v1.8.0 is due August 29. This is two weeks after the GSoC students are finished with their projects (see the GSoC timeline [2]). v1.8.0 will have at least Brian's New Downloader and the GSoC projects. Okay, that's it! If you have some time today and tomorrow to work on Tahoe-LAFS v1.7.1 issues it would be greatly appreciated! Here is a random assortment of the tickets that are currently open in the "v1.7.1" Milestone, to give you an idea of the sorts of things we want to fix. :-) http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/443# set ETag on immutable directories, short-circuit on cache hit http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/943# "tahoe mv" deleted my files? http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1024# introductory docs are confusing and off-putting http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1055# Crashed WUI due to abbreviate_time in common.py http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1081# FTP upload silently fails when nodes < happiness http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1082# default servers-of-happiness=7 prevents single-server use case from working "out of the box" http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1091# give clearer names to the "create a directory" buttons http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1099# stdout might not have an 'encoding' attribute (test needed) http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1115# post-repair says 10 hosts have good shares but there are only 4 hosts See The Roadmap for the full set. Also I'll write a separate letter after this one about Windows support.
