Road To 1.0
From Free Pascal wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchThis documents helps the lazarus team to focus on a 1.0 release in the near future.
The work to be done is divided into 3 targets:
- things to be done before the next release 0.9.10
- things to be done before 0.9.12
- things to be done before the 1.0 release
- things to be done after the 1.0 release
1.0 or after 1.0
When new bugs are entered, we try to give them a target, in which version the bug will be fixed. If a bug is set to post 1.0, that will mean, the developers think this bug is not important enough to block a 1.0 release. In order to have a 1.0 rather sooner than later, developers will leave those bugs for later. Of course patches for these issues are welcome.
Some criteria are:
- Only gtk1 and win32 widget sets are stable in 1.0. So bugs for other widget set (gtk2, carbon) are set to post 1.0.
- Until the 1.0 there will be a feature freeze. New features and components generally get a post 1.0 target.
- Some components are not stable enough and should be disabled for 1.0. If they are disabled, then fixing them before 1.0 will not be necessary.
