[Vxl-maintainers] Release 1.2

[Brendan M. <mc...@cs...>]

G'day Maintainers,

Just a note to say that I have managed to dodge older and newer errors
to create a 1.2 release. I have not yet sent a file release message
using the sourceforge file release system. I would appreciate it if
several maintainers (preferably with various platforms) could download
and attempt to compile and install vxl and send me a message that they
have done this successfully (or not). After I get a few messages in the
affirmative I will send out a release message.

One other thing I would also like advice on regards the 1.2 branch point
and the main trunk and vxl_version.h. I have modified vxl_version.h for
the 1.2 branch of the repository, but not for the main trunk version.
It's not 100% clear what should happen to the main trunk. My best guess
is to also update it to reflect a minor version of 2, but logically it
seems it should not mention versions at all other than CVS. Any advice
here would be welcome.

Cheers,

Brendan.
