[postgis-devel] PostGIS 2.4.0 Beta 1 this weekend

[Regina Obe]

Paul,

 

Perhaps I've been too mean of late mostly because I feel I have to be. 

 

I've started pushing things back to PostGIS 2.4.0 that we had slated you to do at code sprint.

 

I'm only pushing things that I think are pretty much bug fixes and don't change behavior in a serious way or scare me with key changes in the under the cover functions.

 

So that said, you can even do them as late as RC time which will be like 2-3 weeks from now.  If you find other ones to do too that I didn't push back feel free to do them.

 

Please, no new functions once beta1 is cut though.

 

Thanks,

Regina

Well, I still fail to see the all-fired urgency, and I did pick up a number of things that we *did* actually *want* fixed prior to release.

And, I'm up at the beach, enjoying my family for another 6 days. So there ya go. Starting after Labour Day means just that.

If getting a release if more important than closing out the quite large block of tickets under my name, then by all means, bull on ahead :)

ATB,

P

That was partly  to see if you were awake :)

 

It's been 10 days since sprint and you've committed nothing and did not respond to my notes on the tickets so I assumed you were still off in la la la land.

 

The hurry is PostgreSQL 10 is going to come out with the RC  a little after labor day.  After that they plan to release one week after.

 

If we want most folks running PostGIS 2.4 at PostgreSQL 10 we need to release first or very close.

 

We haven't even hit beta yet.  And we need at least one week beta and one week RC.  So that's the rush.

 

If you can honestly get some of the stuff we talked about done in a week's time, I can wait till after labor day, and you can push them back to 2.4 but if not, I'd just assume you wait till PostGIS 2.5 than us miss 2 years worth of work having to wait another year and having to patch up PostGIS 2.4 to work with PostgreSQL 11 (which it already doesn't).

 

Thanks,

Regina

Uh, I have an issue :) I have a pile of tickets that I deliberately took on, on the understanding that I'd work them out over the two weeks following labour day, and that they'd go into 2.4. What's the big hurry here?

I think most everything that needs to be done has been done, and everything
else I pushed to PostGIS 2.5.0  as they didn't seem that important to hold
up a release.

If anyone has issue with a beta release this week speak now.


Thanks,
Regina
