8.03 release?

(1/10) > >>

calzakk:
Can anybody say when the next official release is expected? 8.02 was a long time ago!

TIA

blueshake:
It seems many people want an official release.why not try nightly build. :D

TerryP:
I've often wondered when that will be, since 1.0RC days. They changed to a Ubuntu style versioning number, so 8.03 is unlikely to be the next stable release.

You can always use a nightly build, the one form 2010-01-16 is quite stable (at least on XP), and it's possible to follow development and compile your own whenever `interesting` features are added. I can verify that the trunk works better on FreeBSD, then 8.02 :-D

If they build a new stable release today, it would be 10.01, because the first number is the year and the second the month.

calzakk:
The point of the question is that some people will only use an official, tested and stable release. There are probably lots who won't go near a nightly build (including myself).

I admit I know nothing about how Code::Blocks is developed and built, but it seems to me that there isn't a plan. Don't shout back at me if I'm wrong, just put me straight, because Code::Blocks is one of the best C++ IDEs out there and I do appreciate what the devs are doing  :)

I'd suggest targeting for regular milestone releases (every six months?) that have been tested and deemed good and stable enough for general use. How about aiming for a 10.02 release?  :wink:

Just my two cents' worth...
