Re: latest news on v5?

 

Is there anything that some can help you with here, and in that case, what would that be?

I apologize for not replying sooner but I've been really swamped at work
and summer isn't the best time of the year for me to get work done.  I'm
still hoping to get version 5 out before the end of the summer although
at this point it's looking unlikely.  I'm getting close to finishing the
symbol library table configuration wizard.  Once that's done, I'll use
the symbol library table ID to access symbols.  Once this code is
stable, I will announce a last call before we branch version 5 to start
preparing for the release.

Cheers,

Wayne

I am still hoping to land the following features in 5.0 if the schedule
allows:

- GerbView GAL
- Color themes

I have been away from the project for the past few months due to life
stuff getting in the way, but starting to get back in to it.  My first
priority is getting my GerbView GAL branch to the point where I can
submit patches (my goalpost for this is that nothing crashes,
performance is good and no regressions, and 90% of features supported in
GAL mode)

     Hi Cirilo,

     Since no one have replied I would like to summarize very briefly.

     It seems that many people have been busy with other things, so the
     list have been at bit silent recently.

     The macos and windows nightlies have been down for a few weeks, but
     are now sort of running again.

     I have not had much time to watch the bug tracker too much recently,
     but I know there are quite some reports about segfaults/crashes that
     needs to be evaluated for an upcomming release.

     I have less track of what features are supposed to og into v5.0. To me
     this is still unclear, but I guess the biggest blocker is the stuff
     that Wayne is working on. But I lost track of whether or not he needs
     some feedback on something or not.
