hi, 1) short resume for things we need before releasing beta - Richard has some pending work on lyx2lyx which will finish some JMarc work. - pending patch from Gregory Jefferis for CT, Vincent might have look on it. - dispatch fixes for #6417 - #6809 - converting to older LyX versions doesn't work under standard conditions (lesser importance)
btw i have looked on the thread dealing with #4624. Richard, is there some reason why that patch was not committed? http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg158287.html 2) ideas how to deal with so many bugs we have i was thinking that dev meeting could have this topic - to get rid at least worst cases of bugs of 2.0svn. however there was no new message about the freiburg party - do i understand correctly this idea is dead, right? 3) beta/branch cooperation i was thinking that we could release beta and 1.6.8 in approximately the same time. from that point branch became very strict for enhacements, string changes and bigger changes generally. this way we could move left .po file to trunk and ask translators to start work on trunk version. since we were successful at introducing new regressions in branch we could try to make at least the final 1.6.9 without surprises this way. Juergen what do you think about this idea? other opinions, suggestions? pavel
