Forum OpenACS Development: Re: Remaining work for 5.0.0 release

Collapse
Posted by Joel Aufrecht on
The following items still block the release of 5.0.0 release candidate 1:
  • Creating a guest user no longer works.. A fix was committed today; if it is not to the submitter's satisfaction, I suggest we demote the bug to not being an OpenACS blocker (it's a dotlrn bug anyway).
  • Translation server. The code to make upgrades easy and safe has been committed. Remaining work is
    • an intermittent failure in the automatic tests must be tracked down and fixed
    • The translation server has to be updated with the new code and then new translations have to be merged back.

    A conservative ETA for this work is early January.

  • Upgrades. As far as I know, several people have upgraded successfully; in each case it has taken several days and many manual steps plus some bug fixes. I would say that we have not met our upgrade criterion yet.
