Re: 5.0.2 stable release.

 

I am a bit out of the loop sadly as i had quite a busy month behind me (new job plus some old responsibilities)

I created an issue over at the symbol repo. [1] Both to ask the other librarians and for a place to report design breaking changes. (A few symbols have been changed since 5.0.1 it seems.) If there are no objections then i will tag tomorrow morning before i go to work (~06:45 CET) A word of warning: My internet seems to be a bit unstable. If i do not tag tomorrow then it might have been broken completely.

I saw that the translation and doc repos were tagged for 5.0.2.  Where
do we stand on the library repos?

I should have also mentioned that the outstanding items milestoned for
5.0.2 are actual fixes which we would like to include. We've been
careful not to pushing breaking changes flippantly so tagging the head
of each library should be safe and an improvement. Breaking changes
haven't been intentionally made since 5.0.0 unless it was to fix an
issue that might ruin a design (wrong pinout, footprint pins swapped, etc.).

     Yay!

     We (librarians) have a few outstanding items in the library we want
     to close before 5.0.2, but it should only be a couple of days and
     well within the one week timeline you requested. Thanks mostly to
     Antonio, we're now using the milestone feature of GH so you can see
     what's left at https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-symbols/milestone/6
     and https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-footprints/milestone/1 (for
     symbols and footprints, at least).

         I just tagged and pushed 5.0.2 so we need to decide what we want
         to do
         about tagging the library and translation repos.  Rene, any
         thoughts on
         the library repos.  I know there have been a lot of changes
         since 5.0.1
         but as long as the existing symbols have changed too
         significantly, I'm
         fine with tagging the current head of each library.
