Hi all,

Now that we are in Feature Freeze, attention turns to bug fixing.

As we've done before, we'll establish a point goal - 200pts. Each fixed bug between today and release will count towards that score. Low priority bugs score 3pts, medium 6pts, and high 9pts.

When we've hit that list, *AND* closed all the Must-Fix bugs for 0.44.0, we will move into the Hard Freeze phase, and give control over to the release wardens to finalize the release.

Needs Fixed in 0.44.x Stable Series

Needs Owner in Order to be Prioritized

---- 1484076 potrace freeze with multiple color scan ---- 1475189 Extension ignored by inkscape ---- 1468393 square/circle/polygon/spiral and linked offset misbehaviours ---- 1491646 WIN - Win32 extensions does not call delivered Python ---- 1491925 gradients referenced from masked object disappear ---- 1490430 [INFO NEEDED] Crash in libcairo.dll ---- 1489794 crash with composite ---- 1459502 Crash on imported image update (during Gimp save) ---- 1349761 Inkboard: inkscape crashes when trying to connect

Note that I've deliberately kept the list of must-fix bugs for 0.44.0 very lean, so that we can release sooner rather than later. If you disagree and have a bug that you think really must go there, then please speak up now, and explain why it should be a release blocker.

Some of the rationale I used for de-ranking bugs: Difficulty confirming the bug. Bug appears to affect just the reporter. Bug doesn't cause crash or data loss. Crash is due to something very unusual (like a specific font, or a directory with unicode characters, or selecting

...

1000 nodes while snapping is on, etc.) Bug is in a feature not enabled

by default (i.e. inkboard).

Also note that this list doesn't accept bugs unless they have an owner. This is strictly for pragmatic reasons - without someone volunteering to take care of it, we may end up waiting a very long time to close it. In past releases, we've often ended up simply having to release with these sorts of bugs anyway, so I figure, why accept them as Must Fixes in the first place? ;-)
