Hi all, I'd like to start preparing for the creation of the release-4.2 branch and the 4.2.0 release. I've come up with the following tentative schedule, which will give us a couple of release candidates before SharkFest EU and a final release in November, after SharkFest:
Aug 24 : Release 4.1.0 Aug ?? : Release 4.1.1 Sep ?? : Release 4.1.2 Oct 2 : Create the release-4.2 branch Oct 4 : Release 4.2.0rc1 Oct 18 : Release 4.2.0rc2 Oct 30 - Nov 3 : SharkFest EU. See you in Brussels! Nov 8 : Release 4.2.0 If you need to delay any of the above, particularly the release-4.2 branch, please let me know. New features and improvements in 4.2.0 will include: - Packet list sorting performance improvements. - "_ws.col.<x>" display filters. - More display filter improvements, including raw byte matching (@field.name == 12:ab:23:cd). - Some name resolution files (such as "manuf" and "services") are now compiled in, which reduces startup time. - A built-in MAC address / OUI dialog. - A Windows Arm64 installer. Note that the release-3.6 branch is an LTS branch, so in accordance with https://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/LifeCycle we'll have three active release branches until May 2024. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev@wireshark.org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
