[Linux-igd-devel] [RFC] Release goals and roadmap...

[Daniel J B. <dan...@gm...>]

I've been testing and committing some updates to the project lately
and wanted to discuss release plans.

So far, there are a few items I'm aware of:

 1. connection data counters do not work (bug)
 2. use of unbounded strings, unchecked calls, ip address strings and
other potential security-related things - including memory (valgrind)
bugs, which I've fixed most non-subtle ones already
 3. outstanding patches
 4. subversion migration (?)

It would be good to do a 0.95 release, as-is. At least people can get
something officially updated.

Following this, I'd like to get some other security-related items
tightened up and I have a patch half-cooked for item #1 - this should
take a couple of weeks, then after a couple of weeks of code being
tested to some degree, perhaps a grand 1.0 release?

Following this, it would be great to get Nektarios's excellent patches
in and iron out any issues; I've seen at least one potential one,
which I'll raise separately - (I like the "harmonizing" concept I
think Juho mentioned) and release version 1.2/1.5/2.0 depending on how
significant our renewed energy and redefined image is.

The route to 1.0 needn't take as long this I mention, but it's good to
not have to rush. I was looking at subversion migration in the future,
since CVS is a pain without setting up the SSH keys correctly and if
you don't have full net access.

What do you guys think?
