I really don't have time to organize a meeting right now. If Uwe is still willing to do that, there will at least be a chance that I will show up there. > 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? Concerning the synchronouos release time: depends on what bugs show up in branch. If we fix some critical bug in branch, we should not wait with the release for the beta. About the po files: I'm not sure this is really an issue. With a decent po file editor, keeping two trees in sync is no big deal. I agree that the final 1.6.x should be as stable as possible, so we should be even more conservative than we are now. Given the current development dynamics, though, I'm not sure that LyX 1.6.9 will be the final release. Jürgen
