What is the general opinion of the state of Tklib ? Does it contain enough stuff to make the initial release ? If yes, also enough to declare it version 1.0 ? Or should it be 0.4 ? -- So long, Andreas Kupries <aku...@sh...> <http://www.purl.org/NET/akupries/> Developer @ <http://www.activestate.com/> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Perhaps it does not have all the goodies we would like, but the present state of being in CVS only is very unsatisfactory. If people can download it and use it as easily as Tcllib, then we will see more requests, bug reports and so on (at the very least we will see more users). Regards, Arjen |

Ok, nobody answered beyond Jeff and Arjen. Based on that the consensus is to make a release. There was no consensus regarding a version number, so I have to decide. My opinion is that what we have is not really enough for an 1.0 release yet. Thus I am going with version 0.4. Today I committed a number of changes moving the tklib SAK tool forward, fixing small version differences, adding release information, etc. Pre-release archives of tklib-0.4 can be found at http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4.kit http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4.zip http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4.tar.gz http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4.tar.bz2 Please give them a whirl. Note: The only module in tklib which has a testsuite is plotchart. So there wasn't that much to check. We might wish to check that all version information (package indices, code, documentation is correct and in sync). The Tklib CVS is hereboy considered ** frozen **. Please do not commit _anything_at_all. If something is committed between now and making the final release I am more willing to undo such changes before tagging the release than adding the change to the release. -- So long, Andreas Kupries <aku...@sh...> <http://www.purl.org/NET/akupries/> Developer @ <http://www.activestate.com/> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Csaba of tablelist had some comments about the pre-release as well, sent directly to myself. Incomplete list of contributors and bad stuff in the .tap file ... I have committed fixes for these problems and generated new pre-release archives. http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4-1.kit http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4-1.zip http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4-1.tar.gz http://www.purl.org/net/akupries//soft/clt-arch/tklib-0.4-1.tar.bz2 -- Andreas Kupries <and...@Ac...> Developer @ http://www.ActiveState.com, a division of Sophos Tel: +1 604 484 6491 |
