1.7 and 7.5 status: we're frozen

Hi, Sorry for the paucity of updates (as well as progress). After a chat with Peter, we decided to postpone XKB2 (yet again) to 1.8, to give it more time to mature, as opposed to just dropping it in the tree, and also to allow us to make any updates to Xi that may be required after actually deploying it with 1.7. This means that we're not blocking on anything major for 1.7 bar stabilisation work and bug fixes, which means ... XSERVER IS FROZEN. PLEASE DON'T COMMIT ANYTHING MAJOR, OR ANY API BREAKS, WITHOUT CHECKING WITH ME AND/OR PETER FIRST. 1.6.99.900 will be rolled some time over the weekend, with .901 to follow fairly shortly after that. We'll branch the server when it makes sense -- probably pretty close to .901 or .902. Xi proto/libs need a final release at some stage, but most of the other modules are looking fairly good at the moment, and indeed already have releases. I'm hoping this means a final 1.7 and 7.5 release shortly before, or during, XDC. If you maintain a weird platform, please get building the stack and let us know of any problems so we can release a 7.5 that actually works everywhere. As always, please let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, Daniel -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
