[Qemu-devel] Should we have a 2.0-rc3 ?

[Peter Maydell]

So far I know of at least three fixes which should probably
go into 2.0:
 * my fix for the configure stack-protector checks on MacOSX
 * MST's pull request updating the ACPI test blobs
 * MST says we need to update the hex files for ACPI too
   (otherwise you get a different ACPI blob depending on whether
    your build system had iasl or not, if I understand correctly)

Are there any others?

So we have two choices:

(A) get those fixes into git today, and tag an rc3; that
would then need some testing time and presumably we'd hope
to tag it as the 2.0 release on Monday or Tuesday next week

(B) say that the above are not worth fixing in 2.0 proper
and plan to do a 2.0.1 in a few weeks with the above plus
any other breakage that people find.

Opinions?

thanks
