Hello Chistoph,

I apologize for not announcing the 7.0.2 release was pending a few weeks ago like I normally do.  It just fell through the cracks this time.  I will try to be more mindful in the future for making sure folks who are not on the Zulip developer list are kept in the loop of new releases.


Yes, please.

BTW, any chance to have some "test" period before stable releases? I mean something like: announce the next release 1 week before and do some freeze avoiding to commit changes that can potentially break something. Only verified fixes.

I didn't know about the release, and I was trying to make my plugin work with the current master. When I went back to 7.0 branch I checked out the commit before the 7.0.2 tag. I found 4 annoying bugs, all of them are now in the release. Three of them are already fixed.

IMHO KiCad needs much more regression tests to allow developer to create a release without a test period. From what I see most bugs are catched by users, not regression tests. Also note that the `kicad-cli` and Python API opens the oportunity to create simple and powerful tests.


Regards, Salvador
