Rhythmbox has branched for 0.10 (was Re: Upcoming Rhythmbox release)

["James \"Doc\" Livingston" <doclivingston gmail com>]

Hi everyone,


Rhythmbox has finally started to sync back up with the Gnome release
cycle, and has branched for a stable series. The SVN branch is called
"RHYTHMBOX-0_10" (under the usual "branches" directory). If there's
anything else I need to tell everyone, please let me know (and CC me).

As mentioned below, the branch is basically string frozen.

Basically. One exception we know we'll need is to add a new string for
an error message required to fix a nasty bug, but the 0.10 series can be
considered pretty much string-frozen.

If we do need to add/modify a string, I'm not quite sure on the protocol
for apps that aren't part of the Gnome desktop. Would it be better to
send an email to the gnome-i18n list when I change it (and if possible
give an idea of the time to the next release), or just note any string
freeze breaks in the mail a week or so before a release I send to give
advance notice of the release?


Please keep me CC'd on any replies, as I'm not subscribed to the list.


Cheers,

James "Doc" Livingston
