3.6.x String Freeze [WAS: 3.6.3 Update]
by Chris Nighswonger 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Ok, in spite of my worst fears, the issues mentioned below have been resolved and the 3.6.x branch is now in a string freeze. I'm planning to release on 25 Jan 2012, giving the translators a week to update translations. See you in a week! :-) Kind Regards, Chris Koha 3.4.x/3.6.x Release Maintainer On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 10:50 PM, Chris Nighswonger < cnighswonger(a)foundations.edu> wrote: > Hi all, > > Just an update here on the status of 3.6.3. > > My schedule has been extremely busy since I returned to work the first of > the month.

3.6.3 Update
by Chris Nighswonger 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Hi all, Just an update here on the status of 3.6.3. My schedule has been extremely busy since I returned to work the first of the month. As a result, I have been working in fits and starts to get commits picked out of master and into 3.6.x in preparation for the release of 3.6.3. After finally getting several hours today devoted to the work, I have royally screwed up my local maintenance branch from which I push to the main repo. As those who eat and drink git know, this is not a fatal disaster, but it is certainly one which will now require another large block of time to correct: a resource I am sadly short on at the moment. Long story short: 3.6.3 will not be released on time this month. Very likely it will be near the end of the month before I can get things sorted out and announce a string freeze for the translators. This pushes the release into the second week of February. Please accept my sincerest apologies for the delay. Kind Regards, Chris Koha 3.4.x/3.6.x Release Maintainer
