Hello, what would be great (for me), is that patches
for stable release
(currently 3.5.13) are downloadable individually from a
central/official place.
So that every distro could keep in sync with updated packages, instead
of doing the work separately.
I'd also like to have source tarballs for 3.5.13.1 when it's out, to
eliminate the need for patches in packaging process.
About a release date, I'm not really in a hurry, since I already
provide heavily patched packages for RHEL/Fedora.
So TDE is already working very well and there will be no big difference
between current 3.5.13 and 3.5.13.1 for the end-users.
Hey. Precisely due to the central location of the patches I have stirred
up the debate on the establishment of a 3.5.13 branch in the GIT. That
seems like an ideal solution. Patches would be available and we can work
on them together. And it also simplifies the new source tarballs ready
for others, who creates packages.
Perhaps it would be helpful if he joined us and Tim Williams, who prepares
packages for Mandriva. I am not clear whether he takes the specs and
patches from your packages, or if he also backport patches?
Date of release interested me, because standard sources for Debian and
Ubuntu still contain original 3.5.13 - that is, with a number of bugs.
But I do not want to rush.
