Hello all,
Good news!, Epsilon 1.5 has been scheduled for release for the end of May.
To do so, we need to complete a couple of tasks.
1. Determine what goes in.
Current work on incremental and parallel execution will NOT go into version 1.5.
If you are working on a driver/language/enhancement and consider it to be in a usable state (all functionality implemented and tested), reply to this email with your interest in making it part of the release. We will decide on a per-contribution basis.
2. Prepare the code for release
This is mostly automated and only requires a manual update on the versions in all MANIFEST and pom files. @Antonio: I know you usually do this; I've had success in using bumpversion[1] to automate this process, let me know if you want us to set this up (a bit of manual work initially, but then it will be automated).
3. Release
This should be automated
4. Create Full Distributions
We would appreciate some help creating the Full Distributions, i.e. the windows/macos/linux Epsilon-ready eclipses you can download from the site. Please let us know if you can give a hand.
Also remember that if you have developed a driver/tool that is currently in EpsilonLabs you should configure it to be part of the EpsilonLabs update-site[2].
Cheers,
