Hi, now that xorg 7.2 is out we are short of excuses for holding back the 2.3 release (hint: we'll wait for xorg 7.3 ;)) Assuming Tilman is already working on the xorg repo, I think there are still a few open questions, so I suggest a IRC meeting for next tuesday at 20.00 CET. Generally speaking, I think most of the 2.3 related work has already been done for the 2.3-test1 iso, which I've been using daily with no problems since last december. I hope we can put out a RC in the next couple of weeks and a release shortly after that. Last, we've had a number of retired developers later, some discussion about the focus of the project and plans for the future would help us getting the job done with less effort. Anyway, I propose we concentrate on the 2.3 release for now and solve non-technical issues later on. Regards, Simone

Yes :)

ACK.

Yes, I still need to fix the handbook for the Xorg installation though.

This suits me fine. I'll be there.

Can somebody (with a better overview/knowledge than me :-) ) please compile a list of (therefore orphaned) essential ports? (if there are any) I have looked through the attic and contrib-old repositories, but it is hard for me to decide which of them have to/should be in {core, opt, contrib}. Or may be you want to hand over some already adopted/maintained ports to me to partition the burden.
Anyway, I propose we concentrate on the 2.3 release for now and solve non-technical issues later on.
ACK Regards, Till -- http://www.tbmnet.de ___________________________________________________________ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
