This is my idea for the coming month(s). If you look through the differences between Pike 7.6 and 7.7 there are by now quite a few, so a release of Pike 7.8 should really be done. I can think of the following issues
- Review of GTK2 interface and implementation. - Review of SQLite unicode interface. - The multiset sprintf bug. - Merge GLUE changes from AIDO.
I realize that most of the workload will probably end up with us in Linköping, but any help is of course appreciated. We aim at rewriting the jukebox client (http://pike.ida.liu.se/about/pike/jukebox1.png) with GTK2 as part of the review. I would like to see the folloing applications tested for regressions with the Pike 7.8 branch
- Roxen WCM - Caudium - sTeam - AIDO - gjuke
This is something that anyone can start doing right now.
For the pike releases we make from pike.ida.liu.se I suggest that we remove the following modules (as unmaintained)
- DVB - Mird - PDF - Perl - Pipe - Ssleay
