[Tuxpaint-devel] June release of 0.9.17?

[Bill K. <nb...@so...>]

This month marks Tux Paint's 5th 'birthday.'  (I began coding it in
mid-June 2002, and released an initial alpha a few days later, IIRC.)

How do people feel about releasing Tux Paint 0.9.17 some time this month?

A number of high-priority (8 and 9) bugs still exist, although a few of those
seem like flukes, and a few of them I can live with for another version:

MOST important is getting Printing to work right.  At the moment, we list
a number of work-arounds for various platforms, due to issues like bad
PostScript, Mac endianness confusion, etc.:

These two are strange issues I've only seen reported once:

  Text doesn't work at all  [ Mac OS X 10.4.8 ]

  First mouse click in Fullscreen minimizes TP to taskbar  [ Win 98 SE ]

Thoughts?


PS - Our last three releases have each been a year apart
(Oct 2004, Nov 2005, Oct 2006), for what it's worth...
