As of 1:00PM CDT on September 27, 2010 a hard freeze is in effect in SVN.
Only crash fixes will be accepted at this point, and only if the patch
will not affect any other sections of Trinity.
Also, this is a friendly reminder that release is in less than 4
days...distribution maintainers, get your build systems cranked up!

As of September 21, 2010 a pre-release freeze is being declared for
Trinity version 3.5.12.
This means that patches will only be accepted into SVN for the following
reasons:
1. To repair a crash
2. To repair broken functionality, if the patch is very small and impact
to other code is minimal.
3. To disable broken features, if the patch required to repair the broken
feature does not fit into category 2 above.
This freeze means that the following patches, among others, will NOT be
accepted during the freeze period:
1. Changes to log messages, including warning and informational messages.
2. User-visible interface changes of any kind.
As with the feature freeze, this freeze will end on October 1, 2010 with
the release of 3.5.12.
I encourage everyone to update to the latest SVN release and start testing
to ensure that the software is stable and all features work as intended.
Thanks to the Trinity developers for all your hard work!

This is a friendly reminder that a feature freeze for Trinity 3.5.12 is
now in effect. All developers should update their SVN to the latest
revision, rebuild, and start testing to find any major bugs prior to
release.
Also, searchable Qt3 and Qt4 documentation is up on the Trinity website at
http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net Click on the "Documentation" link on
the left hand side to reach the new documentation page. Work is also
ongoing to rebuild an API documentation page for Trinity itself through
Doxygen.
Please remember to report any major bugs found to the trinity-devel list!

Trinity Developers,
A feature freeze for Trinity version 3.5.12 will be in effect from
September 15, 2010 until the middle of October 2010. Please submit any
non-bugfix patches before that date if you would like them included in the
3.5.12 release. After September 15, only bug fixes will be committed to
SVN until 3.5.12 has been released.
Thank you,
Timothy Pearson
