Preparing Code::Blocks Release
MortenMacFly:
Dear community,
on behalf of the whole code::Blocks team I would like to inform you hereby that we are in the preparation phase for a new release of Code::Blocks. Most important: WE NEED YOUR HELP!
The road map is as follows:
- the latest nightly (see http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,12098.0.html) shall be the base revision
- from that nightly on we are on FEATURE FREEZE that means: don't expect / ask for new features, we won't commit such
- we expect bug reports, posted in an own thread in this forum: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,7.0.html
- we will address critical patches with that release in SVN trunk
- if needed another nightly will be announced (you can call it release candidate if you like)
- a release branch will be created
- release will be done.
Here is what you can do:
- use the nightly proposed (or compile from trunk), report bugs!!!
- check the bug tracker of C::B for bugs still active that may be show stoppers
- if you are a developer: try to find patches for the bugs reported
Here is what you shouldn't do:
- ask for new features
- ask for a more detailed schedule
FINALLY: In addition I would hereby open a LOGO / SPLASH SCREEN CONTEST!
The rules are simple:
- setup a logo (probably based on the current one)
- post this logo in this forum: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,7.0.html
- it must have our logo (as seen on http://www.codeblocks.org)
- the word "Code::Blocks" shall be part of the logo, including the "::"
- the word "Code::Blocks" should not be splitted
- there must be space for the release number (most likely 10/04)
- there must be space for the revision number
- it must "work" nicely under all platforms (important if you are using alpha / transparency)
- don't overdo it, we still strike for simplicity
- finally: discuss the logos, we will setup an open poll after a while to decide which one we will pick.
GO AHEAD! HELP US TODAY! :P
Edit: Added additional specification for the logo / splash screen contest

Glad to hear this news, thanks for all the hard works of your guys.
By the way, I still experience the time lags when I open the codeblocks.cbp.(even I disable the real-time options in CC), I suspect there are still something wrong. :(
Also, the split bar in the CC's symbol browser still can't be set correctly when startup (Windows XP), we have discussed here in this post:
Was the width of top view saved in CC configure file?

I can confirm this: it's the problem I described here (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,11790.msg80521.html#msg80521).
I remind you that Nightly Build 5911 doesn't show this behaviour.

Morten and others: Can you consider patch 002942 for inclusion in the this release?
There is at least on user that wants the "smart indent brace" feature to be off.
It might be that many don't know they need it :lol:

Isn't this a Splash screen contest?
