Good day everyone, We are doing one more release this year! It's a smaller scope than the previous one, but will contain some important things.
We now have a document describing release process in details: https://flashrom.org/dev_guide/release_process.html so I will just tell the dates: 15 November: tagging v1.5.0-rc1 6 December: tagging the release v1.5.0 Between 15 November and 6 December we are focused on testing and bugfixing, so no new features will be submitted during that time. The patches can still be pushed and reviewed, but submit will need to wait for after we tag v1.5.0 (ETA 6 December). Bugfixes will be submitted as usual. Any help with buildind/testing/bugfixing is very much appreciated! https://flashrom.org/how_to_support_flashrom.html#building-and-testing-1 What's included in the next release? We now have a document which accumulates info about recent development (for any next release): https://flashrom.org/release_notes/devel.html It's not full final release notes, some things might be missing: for example I will soon add the "Bugs fixed" section there. Lastly, we plan to split flashchips.c into separate smaller files per vendor. The file grew huge, and it's time to split. To minimise the disruption for contributors who are adding support for new chip models, we plan to do this between 15 November and 6 December, when there are less contributions. This work will be submitted only after v1.5.0 tag. -- Anastasia. _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list -- flashrom@flashrom.org To unsubscribe send an email to flashrom-le...@flashrom.org
