Re: [Geary] Geary Development Status?

[Michael Gratton <mike vee net>]

Hey people,

As Niels said I'm in PhD hell at the moment. This should clear up 
somewhat in a month or two, but until I submit the dissertation I am 
very unlikely to have time to cut the release for 0.12, which I think 
is what everyone wants — it's certainly what I would like to see. :)

At the moment, the only things I feel should block the 0.12 release are 
listed under that milestone on b.g.o. If someone wants to fix/triage 
those, cut a release (instruction on the wiki), and be around to handle 
the things that fall out from that, I'd be pretty happy to support 
them. I could give some assistance with commits, tarball uploading, 
PPAs, etc., but I'm too snowed under to be responsive for code reviews 
and bug triaging/squashing.

Maintainers who want to get their users off WebKit2 might want to 
package master as-is. It is relatively stable for me in daily use, 
despite a few regressions and a crasher or two, and the 0.12 release as 
I was envisioning it won't have too many more fixes going into it.

//Mike
