<pre wrap="">Hi Developers and packet assemblers!
Thanks to the hard work of all developers and thanks to Alexander Bruy
for backporting a lot of bugfixes I am able to branch the third
maintenance release on the 1.7.x branch "release-1_7_3" as of today
(10th Dec. 2011). There have been some nasty bugs left in 1.7.2 which
should be cleaned out by now.
The source tarball is here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://qgis.org/downloads/qgis-1.7.3.tar.bz2">http://qgis.org/downloads/qgis-1.7.3.tar.bz2</a>
and the md5 checksum is here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://qgis.org/downloads/qgis-1.7.3.tar.bz2.md5">http://qgis.org/downloads/qgis-1.7.3.tar.bz2.md5</a>
You can check out this branch (depending on your git configuration)
using:
git fetch origin
git branch --track release-1_7_3 origin/release-1_7_3
If packagers would be so kind as to update <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://download.qgis.org">http://download.qgis.org</a>
with links to their latest wares, it will be appreciated. I'll give a
few days (and until we have Windows binaries at minimum) before making
the announcement to the world.
Please note that I have reinstated maintenance of the CHANGELOG file
in the root of the source tree, so consult that (or the
help->about->whats new? tab after building) to see what changes were
made. Some of the last minute commits will not be mentioned there.
There are no new features in the release, only bug fixes and small
tweaks.
I just say this is assumed to be the last 1.7.x release (but I cannot
promise.. probably there will be another "strk"-release ;) ).
There are already first API breaks in master branch on the road to 2.0.
So probably expect a 1.8 somewhere appearing as the "stable" release
without API changes giving the developers time to work out 2.0.
Hopefully I did everything right - forgive me if there are some mistakes
- it's my first release done alone ;)
Best regards
Werner
