I'm awfully sorry to raise this boring topic again, but... Did we decide to skip 0.43 at all?
Peter is doing lots of commits into CVS HEAD. Jon is nowhere to be seen.
Or, did we release it already and I missed it?

Heh, I was getting ready to write this e-mail :) I'm not aware of a release, and it seems like most of the problems have been packaging, right?
Sorry, I've been basically offline for a few days, and I'm still catching up on e-mail. If everything is okay, I'd be happy to make the final release, probably tonight, definitely by tomorrow.

Yes, lets ramp up the machine so that we can do the full release with press, etc on SUNDAY night for a lovely MONDAY release.
All systems go...form voltron...

What? This is the first I heard about skipping 0.43. Who is proposing that? And why?

Last time I inquired a week or two ago, there were still a bunch of changes needed. I think the release branch got tagged anyway, so folks could return to just doing development, but I never heard back as to whether those changes actually have been completed, or if people want to release despite them.
Anyway, I'm still waiting for the signal from the release wardens that they're done, and that we can resume the release process. I'm busy Saturday but otherwise have time this coming week.

Sorry, it was just a joke to stir things up.
But, seriously, this is not funny at all. No release and no word from the releasers for way too long now.

Well, technically getting a release out is all of our responsibility, so I don't think it's worthwhile to point fingers. We're all volunteers after all. ;-)
But yeah, I definitely agree it's time to get it pushed out. If we can get it all wrapped up by Thanksgiving, then that'll give us all the holidays to not have to worry about releases. :-)
So... anyway, getting back to the question of the remaining issues, did they all get resolved or okayed to be done after the release? I see there's an unusually high number of items in the patch tracker - are those things to include in 0.43 or are they just waiting for someone to merge them into HEAD now that it's open?

The problem is, I don't know. The release wardens are supposed to keep track of that and inform us. They did it last time long ago.

Okay, well shall we do as mental suggests and go ahead with the release, and just fix up whatever other issues there are in a .1 release subsequently?
I think we're at an ideal time to get the release out; we can cut the final tarball tomorrow evening, then that gives folks the weekend to make packages, and then Monday put out all the PR stuff.
Can you take a look at the patch queue to see if there are any that need to go in for 0.43? I notice several translation patches that may be worth incorporating. The other things at first glance appear to me to be features rather than bug fixes, so would go into 0.44, but I'd appreciate it if you'd doublecheck.

... I really don't like to think about .1 releases before the release itself. For me this means the product is so buggy as a M$ product that you have to wait for the first fixes to use that.

Then would you see if you can identify what those other issues are? Currently we know of no particular issues, so there are no showstoppers that'd prevent us from releasing this weekend. If you know of some, please list them asap so we can evaluate them.
Keep in mind that 0.43 has been in feature freeze and hard freeze for longer than any release we've done so far, so this suggests it has had a very long time for review and stabilization, so there should be far fewer stability issues than usual.

Oh, I missed one bug fix patch - 1322188, which fixes 1314369 submitted by rwst. Ralf, is this patch needed for 0.43?

To me it looks a bit too dangerous for applying so late. I'd postpone it to 0.44.
The translations definitely need to be committed to both HEAD and 0.43 branch. Can someone please do this?
Also I noticed a OSX packaging commit by Michael. Michael, is this supposed to go to 0.43 and if so, did you also commit it to the branch?
Other than that I'm not aware of any remaining issues.

Yes, this is the fix for Rasca's problem discussed on the list over the last week. And yes, it was also committed to the 0.43 branch.
Cheers, Michael

Hiya Arpad,
This 0.43 release has been a pretty lengthy release process but we're finally coming to the end. We will be finalizing the release tomorrow for an official release this weekend and an announcement on Monday.
Would you have some time over the next day or so to help us get the remaining translation patches from the patch tracker integrated for the 0.43 release?
Thanks again for all your help!
Bryce

Hi,
Would you have some time over the next day or so to help us get the remaining translation patches from the patch tracker integrated for the 0.43 release?
Committed those PO files to 0.43 and HEAD. Also committed tutorial-shapes.ca.svg and updated the appropriate makefile: http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1325528&group_id=934...
6 PO files in HEAD are different from (actually newer than) the same file in 0.43. If noone has objections, I will copy those from HEAD to 0.43.
One more thing. Referring to the following two patches,
http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1348308&group_id=934... http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1326642&group_id=934...
has anyone executed that "make-all" since then?

Sounds good; it's over a month old so perhaps it's already been applied.

It is not but this was not a must-fix. As bulia says, it was too dangerous to go into frozen 0.43. I will commit it to HEAD (0.44).
