I'm aiming for a release of Pike 8 next weekend on Sunday the
7th. This is my current list of "blockers", please speak up if you
have any others or if you have input on any of the existing:
** random() might now be really random (incompatible change)
Will not be backed out. We should provide a pseudo-random() that is
seedable, and preferably does not have a name that includes
"random". I don't want to hold the release for that unless someone has
a real application that needs it or have a finished implementation
with a well thought out API by next Saturday.
** OpenBSD compile failures (regression)
I will not hold the release for this unless someone with a OpenBSD
machine tells me that they are actively working on it.
** Windows support libraries are old (not a regression, just regrettable)
Will make an effort to build new versions of GMP och Nettle, and see
if we can bundle a newer GTK release. Since this is not a regression I
will not hold back a release for it though.
Cheers,
