[orbitcpp-list] Time for a release?

[Phil d. <ph...@us...>]

Hi Andreas & all,

I've been getting a couple of emails recently from people who have
downloaded orbitcpp-0.25 and are asking what they can do to help. 

The problem is that orbitcpp-0.25 is a release using the old
architecture and python idl compiler. I think it's time to put a release
of the new archive out even though it isn't as featureful as 0.25 was. 

This will keep interest up, give people something to build and play
with, and hopefully allow us to spot some build/test problems on other
platforms. I hope it will also encourage more developers to help out.

Of course the next issue is version number: I'm not keen on 0.30 since
this version doesn't represent any significant increase in CORBA
functionality. orbitcpp-0.26?

What do you think?

Phil.

time spent keeping it up to date detracts from my hacking time. If
