[libxml++] FW: GNOME Platform Bindings release set



Would libxml++ like to be on this GNOME release schedule, along with gtkmm?
Please read the Rules before making a decision.

It would mean freezing the next (1.2, 1.4, 2.0 or whetever) API around
Febuary 16th, with total freeze on March 22nd. I think it's possible,
because I don't know of any tasks other than
- using Glib::ustring
- Adding the TextReader API (mostly done by Christophe in a patch)
- make sure that we don't use any deprecated libxml API.

Actually, I would like to call the next libxml++ API 2.6, using 2.5.x during
the unstable phase, to show what version of libxml's API we target.

Subject: GNOME Platform Bindings release set


We now have a GNOME Platform Bindings release set. This means that we can
give some bindings a schedule and rules to work within, and we can endores
those bindings.

Rules:
http://developer.gnome.org/dotplan/bindings/rules.html
Schedule:
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings/

Note that those rules do not guarantee 100% API coverage, but they do
guarantee API/ABI stability.

At the moment, it's just gtkmm (C++) and gtk2-perl (Perl):
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings/modules.html

Expect others in the GNOME 2.8 schedule. I really think that Python should
be in 2.6 too, and others if they can do it. For 2.6, they have until
December 22nd to give us the list of modules that they want to be put in the
release set. Gtk# say they will do it unofficially and hope to be in 2.8.

If you have questions about the GNOME Platform Bindings release set please
send email to language-bindings gnome org  CC release-team gnome org if you
want to appeal to a higher power. This might be reorganized a bit in future.
