Hi, I'd like to propose a few steps to get us moving forward on the 0.11 topic, as we're gradually getting to the feature set we wanted to have. A lot has already been done in the past 8 months, but there's definitely some work ahead of us. There are currently a few working branches that could be integrated: - genshi510 - pycon/workflow - security - vc-refactoring - pycon/render-filter
In particular, there's genshi510 that could probably benefit a lot to be on the trunk, so that we can fix the remaining issues as we see them. That was probably the initial intent of cmlenz when he did the changes directly on trunk. The problem I had with this approach was that it broke the usability status of trunk for an unspecified amount of time, while there were a lot of people trying out trunk on the assumption that it was stable enough for their needs. I didn't want to break this assumption in people's mind, as I think it's actually a very good thing that we have people trying out trunk and willing to report the few occasional issues they might stumble upon. So I moved those changes on a stabilization branch, and as a result the trunk was indeed usable again but the branch has stalled... So what I'd like to do instead is to release a 0.11beta1, as trunk stands now, and let people know that they should use this if they want to try out 0.11dev, because the trunk will become temporarily quite "unstable". We'll then merge genshi510, then the workflow branch. One, two, three weeks later at most, things will have settled down again and trunk will recover its "usable" status. Once the workflow is in, I think there are a few very popular feature requests that it would be nice to fulfill: #454 and #4100. I'll try to find some time to give some more details on the other topics I'm currently working on, and which I'd like to finish or at least put in "good enough" shape for 0.11, but here's a quick overview: - the simplification/clarification of the WikiContext API, emphasizing more its resource descriptor aspect, and the update of the security branch - the vc-refactoring, started with Peter, which only simplifies the versioncontrol/web_ui modules (no change of functionality). This reintroduces some of the ideas of the controller branch from Christopher. Further developments to come soon. - ... then the wiki refactoring, which truly exists somewhere on my hard disk, believe me ;-) -- Christian --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
