[postgis-devel] [postgis-users] PostGIS 2.1.0 RC1 release plan

[Paragon Corporation]

I'm only planning to be building PostgreSQL 9.3 with gcc 4.8 movign forward
(2.1).
 
The 2.1 for 9.2 and below I'll be building with the old chain.  This is
mostly because if I switch 9.2 and below to use the newer
chain I have to do the same for 2.0 sicne its possible windows users are
using both 2.0 and 2.1  A newer gcc build will corrupt the old 2.0
since they share the same dependencies.
 
Besides I want the 9.3 with newer gcc to be out in the field a bit before I
switch all to that.  I may have winnnie build 4.8 as well for the older for
people who have run into the outstanding error handling issues and who want
to try the new build. Also the SEH handling  (that the 4.8 64-bit uses) is 
supposed to be faster the old long/short jump error handling for everything.
I haven't had a chance to bench mark taht to see if that is the case or not.
 
I've already switched Winnie to regress test the 9.3s (both 32,64) 2.1
against EDB distribute PostgreSQLs and will have the same shortly for 2.2
chain.  So far so good :).
 
 
Thanks,
Regina

+1 for release. 

I'm for whatever brings stability for the Windows world. Is 2.1 going to be
built with gcc 4.8?

Anyone have issue if I release PostGIS 2.1.0 RC1 later this week with plans
to go gold the week after?

We'll be holding off on doing any windows stackbuilder distributions until
GEOS 3.4.0 is released (and also longer for 2.1.0 so we can package
pgRouting 2.0 in there). We do plan to switch 2.0.4 to use GEOS 3.4.0 as
well.
These binaries will be available on winnie postgis windows buildbot before
they are finalized and pushed to stackbuilder to give anxious folks a
headstart.

Thanks,
Regina
