Title: Just to keep you people updated :)
Post by: Kry on March 04, 2005, 02:57:30 AM

Ok, some updates:

2.0.0 is going to be release soon. I know, I know, we ALWAYS say soon, but his time I mean soon :)

The release is being slightly delayed because we're finishing it so it's a rocking release that deserves the 2.0.0 FINAL tag.

Highlight of latests fixes:
[list=1]

• Solaris compatibility completed. (thx skolnick for the solaris box for testing!)
  You can see a screenshot HERE (http://forum.amule.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=906&sid=)
  
  
• Sparc arch is completely supported now, unless we break something later ;) Thanks chance2105 for reporting and testing! So long, we support x86, x86_64, ppc, sparc, alpha (afaik) and probably other untested cpus :)
  
  
• wxSocket fixes that improved network a lot. This is SPECIALLY important for wxMac users, because they were the most affected ones. See the rocking downloads they're getting HERE (http://forum.amule.org/thread.php?threadid=5301&sid=&). Thanks to lionel for the tests and ken for the help!
  [/list=1]
  As you can see, we are lately focusing on supporting all we can so aMule will be the truly multiplatform ed2k client out there... except for windows, as we all know :)
  
  Of course, there are a lot more additions and fixes, and all. Core/Gui separation is finished as long as amule daemon, webserver, and all is concerned. Remote GUI is under development, and a stripped version of it might go into the 2.0.0 final release, tho probably not a complete one.
  
  We aren't getting crashes lately on aMule (amule daemon and webserver is a different matter, tho they are now much more stable) since long, long time.  As long as Xaignar doesn't touch the codebase much, at least :P So expect it to be STABLE also.
  
  Thanks to YOU ALL people for all the testing, support, and the good times we get at IRC and forums. You, users, rock :)

What about the manpages I send to gonosztopi last week? Will they be inculded also?

Post by: Kry on March 04, 2005, 04:34:35 AM

Well, I know nothing about them so I'll just torture GonoszTopi to get some info :) Of course they will be included, afak, if they're ok :)

would you mind to release an updated source_strings file a few days before the release so translators can have some time to work and 2.0.0 can be fully translated?

Title: Re: Just to keep you people updated :)
Post by: Kry on March 04, 2005, 10:07:14 PM

Of course. That's already planned. It's not done yet because we're reworking the strings so you have less work :)

I believe you mean the 20050225 cvs snapshot. This is not rc8 :) Or maybe I misunderstood it all :P

Cheers!

I'm running aMule CVS dated 01/03/2005 with a cvs snapshot of wx 2.5.4, and it runs flawlessly here.... Well it did crash only once but I haven't been able to reproduce the crash again...

Yeah, ok, this wasn't really intended, but it was the way it always is: We announced a release "soon" and everything just broke...  :]

But most of the bugs are now ironed out and the release should be done... soon...  :D

We're waiting for wxGTK-2.6 to be released. IIRC, Kry said it would be within a few weeks.

Post by: PunkSC on March 22, 2005, 05:28:59 PM

ok! Tks for the update! Dont worry about time... 2.0 final really need to be bug free, dont matter how long it will take to be released...

Title: Re: Just to keep you people updated :)
Post by: Xaignar on March 22, 2005, 05:33:40 PM

Heh, don't be silly. If we had the requirement that it should be bug-free before we would make an release, then we would never make an release. Remember, it's impossible to prove that non-trivial software is bug-free, but it's always possible to prove that bugs exist. ;)

Post by: PunkSC on April 04, 2005, 06:56:40 AM

ok...its official "soon" means more then one month! ;)

Post by: Kry on April 04, 2005, 09:41:08 AM

Depends on the soon :P

I've got a proposal for amule developers: next time Kry wants to make an announcement, tie his hands and feet and gag him :D
and call an exorcist, a very good one :D

Title: Re: Just to keep you people updated :)
Post by: Kry on April 04, 2005, 05:37:34 PM

I'm just evil :P Love to have you there expecting the release.
