[pacman-dev] pacman 4.1 release plans
It has been over a year since pacman-4.0 and the pacman-4.1 release is beginning to shape up, so let do it... The main thing that is left is to merge my improvements for the signature checking, which I will do in the next week. Once that is done, nothing major will be committed. So if you have a patch had comments made and you never did them [1], now is the time. I am aiming for string freeze mid to late February. At that time it will also become big/regression fixes only. Main release, early March. @Dan: will you have time to help with translations, or can you give me Transifex access? [1] https://patchwork.archlinux.org/project/pacman/list/?state=*
Updated timetable! Due to me being very busy over the next ten days or so, I will make the 4.1rc release on the weekend of the 9/10 of March. At that stage there will be a bug-fix only policy, so anything else you want in the 4.1 release better be sent to the mailing list soon! I will try to review everything quickly, but be prepared to make any requested changes quickly. Once 4.1rc is out, there will be a complete string freeze. I will merge all the changes available on transifex and upload the updated pot files. (as soon as I figure out how that all works!). I have a small holiday planned in March, so I will look to release 4.1 over the Easter weekend. That gives almost three weeks for the needed translations to be done. Allan
