Hi,
I don't think there is much of a point in delaying more. I've
recently
made another run through patches that should be in 2.20 and pushed
to
stable/2.20 branch.
I think further integration work is as likely to destabilize as to
stabilize stuff (if I not already did so), so the plan is to have
a) let Phil release 2.19.83 as soon as he wants
b) release 2.20.0 from that state (with a few cherry-picks on top)
about
a week after the last urgent "stop the presses" call. Those would
involve synching up documentation and bug fixes so obviously
important
that one would rather see them in than give them some time for
testing.
This will be followed (as soon as the state of download/web pages
and
Phil's resources permit) with releasing 2.21.0 to get an unstable
version to refer to.
I'm getting a bizarre problem with 2.20. I did my updates to
VERSION,
news, etc. and ran a make to check all was OK. It failed being
unable
to find Documentation/pt/. If I ls in a terminal, the directory is
not shown. If I look with Nautilus it's there.
Nautilus may show files it knows that may be recovered from backup.
I know it's been deleted in master,
Obviously I am not quite in the loop: why would we have done that?
