We're nearly half way between the 0.7 release and the 0.8 code freeze. There's already been an impressive number of contributions made to the crew branch, but I have high expectations for the 0.8 release.
There are 5 big tasks remaining on the road map: 1) a large cleanup/reorg required to fix window startup positions and define global keyboard accelerators and use common dialogs 2) the commit tool needs a refactor to remove the treeview without breaking change selection (#119, #101, etc) 3) C++ shell extensions, to finally fix the dreaded issue #67 (installing thg breaks many other apps) and make our extensions easier to work on 4) Integrate the translation work being done on Launchpad (setup.py and installer changes, mostly) 5) Workflow enhancements to update and merge To help with #3, I've converted Mark's tortoisebzr repo from bzr to hg and hosted it on bitbucket to make it easier for people to get access to: http://bitbucket.org/sborho/tortoisebzr-trunk/ I plan to start on #1 this week. I no one has picked up #3 by the time I'm done with #1, I'll do at least the initial portions of that task and then move on to #2. I'm hoping someone will volunteer to do #4, since it has no external dependencies. I'll be doing #5 last, so it's also a good candidate for contribution. http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/stable/wiki/crew-release-notes -- Steve Borho PS: there's another 0.8 preview installer up on code.google.com (090418) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
