[libvirt] Plan for next release

We are getting close to the end of the month, so we may need to freeze next Monday or Tuesday. Are we ready for 1.3.0 now :-) ? I see that configure.ac targets 1.2.18, so a priori no, but would rather have a clear answer :-) Thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard@redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

I had posted patches with "1.3.0" in the docs changes, but haven't pushed them yet (no reviews :-( )

Unfortunately we don't. We're trying to achieve clean and extensible design that we're not going to regret (or at least as late as possible).

I'll have a look at them today, but be prepared to change that to 1.2.18 :) Martin

I guess a requirement for freeze, or at least for release, is deciding how we want to handle symlinks with long paths[1] so that we can, you know, make dist :) Cheers.

Saw that, and IMHO we need to fix the filename :-) Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard@redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

It needs to be fixed far before the release - make rpm is broken too, and that's my preferred method of testing. I've fixed it locally with a patch to change "deconfigured-cpus" to "down-cpus", but didn't want to push it unilaterally, even though the build is broken.

I just sent a patch renaming it to "nonpresent", which is still short enough not to run into the lenght limit. It's certainly going to be stuck in the moderation queue, so if you have the permissions to do so please let it through :) Cheers. -- Andrea Bolognani Software Engineer - Virtualization Team
