[ros-dev] 0.3.9 Status

[Aleksey Bragin]

Hi,
by today most of the bugs which were having 0.3.9 as a milestone are  
fixed - including fixing 4-months old bug with richedit control,  
properly trimming DLL names during PE loading so that apps now can  
find their DLLs (previously that failed in some cases), newest  
downloader problem introduced yesterday and fixed today (not to speak  
about yesterday's fixes too!).

This is a very good example of team collaboration, team effort aimed  
at a narrow set of problems. It worked very well, and I think we  
would utilise such bugfixing sessions in future too.

Branching date is now set to tomorrow, 17th of April, 2009 and is not  
going to be changed anymore. As soon as the 0.3.9 branch is created,  
feature freeze is considered to be finished.

After the release is branched, usual testing will be conducted,  
actual packages built and released as usual.


Thank you for your efforts and for being patient with regards to the  
feature freeze.

WBR,
Aleksey Bragin.
