Dear all,
I think we are very close to a 1.5.0 release,
Not really.
1.5.0 doesn't have to be perfect WRT unicode. I reckon that a 1.5.0
working fine for the latin world (and RTL language) is good enough for now.
CJK and advanced input method can wait for 1.5.1.
here is the list of "more
than major" bugs for 1.5.0svn (12 bugs):

and the list of "more than normal" bugs for 1.5.0svn (73 bugs):

I personally think that, as soon as these bugs are solved, we can
release 1.5.0:
Don't forget the regressions. There are some that are not trivial to fix,
e.g. http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3043.
->1.5.1, see above.
3203 possible to import non-utf8 text files
Seems difficult to do internally. I think an external python solution
would be nice.
Very easy to do internally with the iconv_codecvt_facet. The difficult
question is how to do the UI.
I seem to remember a python program that can detect encoding and convert
to utf8 with a good reliability. If this works, maybe we don't need to
do this internally? And so we don't need to ask the user a question he
will probably don't know the answer...
3288 event handler crash
Don't know, don't seem to happen frequently (never seen it).
Please read my comment. The particular reason for this crash was solved, but
we must ensure that we don't throw an exception in the event handler.
Otherwise this has the potential for real dataloss.
So, could a "catch (...)" in GuiApplication::event() solve the issue?
