[Opensim-dev] 0.7 Release Discussion

[Stefan Andersson]

Wise from experience, I would never propose anything as preposterous as to tell any core dev to do anything.

 

But if a substantial part of core devs and the patching community think it's a good idea and can be swayed to rally for it, I think we can see some really extraordinary measures that would make us all look pretty god damn good.


And hell, I stated it would be ambitious. Aim for the stars, hit the treetops, you know.
 
Best regards,
Stefan Andersson

Have you even looked at mantis??? there are 728 open tickets, chances are if we clear mantis, we will have OpenSimulator 1.0.. I personally don't see this as feasible, this is to me looks like us trying to control what all the developers are doing, and I have to -1 this idea as it would probably make most devs just stop working.

I do believe we're all feeling the advent of 0.7 - a milestone in any open source project.
 
Here's a crazy idea for you; how about we agree to freeze feature set and major architecture as of now, and concentrate on only:
 
* Finalizing the backend restructuring
* Clear mantis (hell, let's CLEAR mantis! how's that for ambitious?)
* Write unit tests
 
until the cows come home, and tag the cow homecoming rev as 0.7? Or, say, 1st of aug happens, and we'll tag 0.6.7 then instead. ;)

I believe this kind of solidified 0.7 would give us all a breather, help us recoup, and then we can all go back to fiddling with our various dev projects again.
 
What you say?

Best regards,
Stefan Andersson
