I think that's agreed clearly: 1.0.x will get a last release and go into "support only" mode. This mode means we'll not add features, and not port it to python > 2.5. We'll only do bug fixes and security fixes. > People can still run their 1.0 apps on the 1.0.x releases and will get > security and important bug fixes.

Chris is dead right here: any person running 1.0 in production will be strongly invited to go for 1.1. Why ? Because the 1.1 branch has shiny new defaults but is a real continuation of 1.0 without any breaking change and upgrading from 1.0 is as simple as doing "easy_install -U". Concerning the goals, we need to be realistic: TW will (hopefully) be for 1.5, Genshi is here as a default, SA is here as the default. This is the good time for a release. Appart from a really compelling argument against a release I'll go on with: - a 1.0.6 release and declare this branch "support only" - a 1.1 feature freeze + beta1 release ASAP - a 1.1 stable quite quick after the beta cycle if we don't get too much bad errors popping-out. I would like to shift most of the 1.x work force to the 1.5 branch as soon as possible and avoid dispersion of our efforts across 3 branches :) Florent. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears Trunk" group.
