Re: [Banshee-List] Release management, and stepping it up to 3

[David Nielsen <gnomeuser gmail com>]

On a related note, I am setting up this years edition of the .NET + GNOME hackfest specifically with the aim of getting all our GNOME .NET applications ported to the GNOME3 platform. So far the response looks overwhelmingly positive and I'd like to invite people to examine their schedules for possible attendance.

This year will be in Vienna which should be a delight for our European developers and being set in early October should allow both the bindings generator and the GTK#3 bindings to mature to the point where we can see massive progress across the board.

A wiki page for the event can be found here:

Hopefully this will help push Banshee all the way to 3.0 while providing good times for all.

Hugs, 

The friendly marketing douche

Before merging gtk3 into master, we could also create a "gtk2" branch (and

label it as 2.8 but without releasing it?), just in case we want to have a

reference to the last working gtk2/gconf-compatible infrastructure?

Sure, good idea. We'll create a tag right before the merge, and then

we can always go back a create a branch from that point if necessary.

BTW, regarding 2.6.1, I would like to get on it a fix for a crasher that

happens when using Ubuntu 13.04 beta. The proper fix should maybe really be

in gtk-sharp, but the workaround in Banshee is trivial and I guess it's much

easier to convince the Ubuntu community to include an updated stable banshee

than to rush a gtk-sharp 2.12.x release (which may contain very little) in

13.04 final. So by saying this I'm suggesting to not release too late and

not release too early either (wait for this fix!), I'll share more details

at the end of the week.

Sure, I'll wait to hear from you before going ahead with 2.6.1. I

don't think it's going to happen before next week anyway.
