The answer is "b) there are many halfimplemented things". Mostly the new database backend (which will allow multiple archived versions of each page, and hopefully tie in to the quest for user authentication abilities.) I'm supposed to be working on that. I'll see if I can = produce something soon. (Probably a couple of weeks.) That said, the "alpha" branch does seem to be becoming popular. Even if more big changes are anticipated, perhaps it's time for a 1.3.1 release? (Again with the understanding that those who want real stability should stick with the 1.2.x branch.) And: is it time for 1.2.1? There have been a bunch of bug fixes since 1.= 2. OTOH, things maybe worth waiting for (before 1.2.1) (?): * Marco has promised a few typo fixes for his Italian translations. * Should we fix the case-(in)sensitivity in page name bug(s) in the stable branch, or just leave it? (SF bug # 233898). >If you are on a PHP_SAFE_MODE system, do PhpWiki work like it's >supposed to? I guess you can't mess much with environment variables at >all. Yes, now that you (and Jan) mention it, that is a problem. Oh well. Maybe things are best left as they (now are). (With perhaps a little cleanup regarding LC_CTIME.) >Yes.

Adding some general regression and/or unit tests might be a good th= ing to think about (for everything, not just the setlocale() issues). A lot of work though.... Jeff |
