Hi all,<br>
<br>
Replies requested. Short replies only. Read on. Just a short reply<br>
with bug numbers or links to the bugs is all we need here. Please move<br>
specific discussions into the bugs themselves or start a new thread to<br>
talk about it... Replies on this thread should just be a collector for<br>
bug numbers.<br>
<br>
Example one-line reply:<br>

<br>
We are aiming for quarterly releases from now on, scheduling them<br>
every 3 months. That would make the next release of CMake version<br>
2.8.8, scheduled to have an "rc1" release candidate on Wed. March 7,<br>
2012 -- just 9 weeks from this Wednesday.<br>
<br>
If you have a particular issue that you think should be fixed for<br>
inclusion in 2.8.8, please bring it up within the next two weeks.<br>
Ideally, each issue will be discussed as needed on the mailing list to<br>
come to any consensus about what should be done to fix it, and then an<br>
entry in the bug tracker may be used to keep it on the radar screen,<br>
and to track activity related to it. You can see what's on the roadmap<br>
for this release here:<br>
<a href="http://public.kitware.com/Bug/roadmap_page.php?version_id=90" target="_blank">http://public.kitware.com/Bug/roadmap_page.php?version_id=90</a><br>
<br>
Patches are always welcome. Patches that include testing of any new<br>
features, or tests that prove a bug is really fixed on the dashboards,<br>
basically any patch with testing is preferred over a patch with no<br>
testing. Also, if you are *adding* code, then you also probably need<br>
to add *tests* of that code, so that the coverage percentage stays as<br>
is or rises.<br>
<br>
Please discuss issues here as needed, and add notes to existing issues<br>
in the bug tracker that you are interested in seeing fixed -- we will<br>
be looking at the mailing list and activity in the bug tracker to help<br>
prioritize the bug fixes that will occur in the near future.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

P.S. - as a nice summary of what we accomplished in the CMake 2.8.7<br>
release, see here:<br>
<a href="http://public.kitware.com/Bug/changelog_page.php?version_id=89" target="_blank">http://public.kitware.com/Bug/changelog_page.php?version_id=89</a><br>
-- it currently lists 43 issues that we resolved: nice job, everybody!<br>
<br>
(Many of those were specifically addressed because somebody brought it<br>
up in response to my similar email from just after the last release...<br>
Don't be shy!)<br>
