CDT M9 release (was: Re: [cdt-dev] How to use the CDT 2.0 M8 in Eclispe 3.0 M9)
|
As a semi-offtopic plea, would it be feasible to publish release notes
with milestone releases, along the lines of the Mozilla ones? Not just a
feature list, but also some sense of how stable/reliable a new feature
is thought to be, with known bugs and limitations.
Without release notes, there's less motivation to try a new release, and
there's a risk of bugspam floods for known bugs and experimental
features. Or, worse, NO bugs getting filed for features which are
supposed to be solid but which the hapless user assumes are experimental
because they don't work for him/her. For example, I've been under the
impression that neither content assist nor "Open Declaration" worked at
all for C++ code, until reading some recent newsgroup comments.
Cheers,
Mike

Which brings up the CDT 2.0 M9 end game plan. I would like to take Tuesday
morning's build as the M9 candidate. I will wait until I get a go from
representatives of the major areas of the CDT before declaring. We'll
respin as necessary. As we have seen, there is hot demand for this release
so we should make sure it's a good one, or at least good enough for people
to try out.
Thoughts?
