3:26 p.m.
Finally I've had time to get to the backlog of patches aimed at the
next release of the 21.4 series.
Once I've finished with 21.4.4, I'll try to roll up a 21.5 beta. This
will likely exhaust my available time before my vacation (7/30--8/6
upstate NY, 8/6--8/12 Bay Area). I expect to be in email contact, but
not CVS-able.
I'd like to avoid the kind of fiasco that happened with 21.4.2, and
I've also had too many context switches since early May to really be
on top of things. So I'd appreciate it if people would scan the list
of changes below for any glaring errors of omission or commission.
I've still got some checking to do myself (especially Windows builds),
and a few outstanding patches for Japanese I haven't decided what to
do with, so I'm targeting next Monday (7/23) for the release. All
problems are my responsibility, of course, but your help would be very
welcome!
Ben, do you remember what the story is with set_file_times()? Adrian
thinks it's essential, but it seems from your discussion that his
patch shouldn't actually be any help. Is the mouse-track-insert stuff
safe/recommended for 21.4? (The set_file_times patches are IN, the
mouse-track-insert patches are NOT, yet.)
The release candidate is on a temporary CVS branch "candidate-21-4".
Get it with "cvs update -r candidate-21-4". Build reports (especially
from Master Builder Perry ;-) would be very welcome.
You can also look at the changes applied to the code base with "cvs
diff -r release-21-4 -r candidate-21-4 ..." (either globally or for a
directory, subset of files, or individual file).
The following list of changes is also available as 21.4.4-Changes in
the root directory of the candidate-21-4 branch.
============================== 21.4.4-Changes ==============================
The changes in this release candidate are grouped in the following sections.
Some patches overlap a couple of sections. I (somewhat arbitrarily) assigned
them to the section I thought was most important.
UI and API CHANGES
GENERAL BUG FIXES
MS WINDOWS - printing
MS WINDOWS - set_file_times
MS WINDOWS - C-g handling
MS WINDOWS - miscellaneous
GTK
MISCELLANEOUS
DOCUMENTATION
Please review especially the UI and GENERAL sections, and others as you
have interest/expertise. The MISCELLANEOUS and DOCUMENTATION sections are
entirely uncontroversial and may safely be ignored.
I'm not committed to anything here irrevocably; this is just my first pass
at the next release candidate. Nor are things I've not included here
necessarily ruled out. Let me know if anything in needs out, or anything
out needs in, in your opinion.

BTW, please don't send this kind of message to xemacs-review. We're
trying to break a bad habit of discussing code and design issues on
that closed list. Please send them to xemacs-beta, and if there's a
patch that you want to have applied (as opposed to simply testing by
the foolhardy), send it to xemacs-patches as well.
Note that the patch is a repeat if it is identical, or if it has
changed, say that it supersedes the original patch. If you are
willing to make a little extra effort, you could recover the original
message ID and/or list-archive.xemacs.org URL.

Damn me, I applied that for 21.4.1. It's there ... and in 21.4.2

New subject: Release candidate 2 for XEmacs 21.4.4
Thanks to everybody who checked on the first release candidate. I'm
back, with a few additional patches and fixes.
The full list of changes since 21.4.3 follows. The first section
includes changes since RC 1.
========================================================================
The changes in this release candidate (2) are grouped in the following
sections. Some patches overlap a couple of sections, I (somewhat
arbitrarily) assigned them to the section I thought was most
important.
Please review especially the RELEASE CANDIDATE 2, UI, and GENERAL
sections, and others as you have interest/expertise. The
MISCELLANEOUS and DOCUMENTATION sections are entirely uncontroversial
and may safely be ignored.
To see the changes since 21.4.3, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-3 -r candidate-21-4
To see the changes since release candidate 1, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-4-rc1 -r candidate-21-4
I'm not committed to anything here irrevocably; this is just my first pass
at the next release candidate. Nor are things I've not included here
necessarily ruled out. Let me know if anything in needs out, or anything
out needs in, in your opinion.

What are those straight lines for? "XEmacs rules."
1:15 p.m.
New subject: Release candidate 2 for XEmacs 21.4.4
A lot of paperwork still needs to be done, and my release scripts are
broken by a configuration change on the CVS repository host (I can't
do a top-level "cvs commit .", it runs out of temp space). I expect
to do the release tomorrow. For what it's worth here's RC3 if anyone
wants to try it. I have done only Linux builds so far.
Summary: ESD support defaults to OFF, a configure option is now
available to defeat IPv6 CNAME lookups, doc patch, and Paul Krause's
patch to prevent an infloop reporting window-proc-in-gc patch. The
configure patch for IPv6 turned out to be straightforward, it just
took a little time studying the code.
The changes in this release candidate (3) are grouped in the following
sections. Some patches overlap a couple of sections, I (somewhat
arbitrarily) assigned them to the section I thought was most
important.
Please review especially the RELEASE CANDIDATE 2, RELEASE CANDIDATE 3,
UI, and GENERAL sections, and others as you have interest/expertise.
The MISCELLANEOUS and DOCUMENTATION sections are entirely
uncontroversial and may safely be ignored.
To see the changes since 21.4.3, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-3 -r candidate-21-4
To see the changes since release candidate 2, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-4-rc2 -r candidate-21-4
I'm not committed to anything here irrevocably; this is just my first pass
at the next release candidate. Nor are things I've not included here
necessarily ruled out. Let me know if anything in needs out, or anything
out needs in, in your opinion.

hi stephen

build report submitted to usual place
let me know if you need any compile options tested on FreeBSD
happy to help with my Favourite Application running on my Favourite OS
A lot of paperwork still needs to be done, and my release scripts
are
broken by a configuration change on the CVS repository host (I can't
do a top-level "cvs commit .", it runs out of temp space). I expect
to do the release tomorrow. For what it's worth here's RC3 if anyone
wants to try it. I have done only Linux builds so far.
Summary: ESD support defaults to OFF, a configure option is now
available to defeat IPv6 CNAME lookups, doc patch, and Paul Krause's
patch to prevent an infloop reporting window-proc-in-gc patch. The
configure patch for IPv6 turned out to be straightforward, it just
took a little time studying the code.
The changes in this release candidate (3) are grouped in the following
sections. Some patches overlap a couple of sections, I (somewhat
arbitrarily) assigned them to the section I thought was most
important.
Please review especially the RELEASE CANDIDATE 2, RELEASE CANDIDATE 3,
UI, and GENERAL sections, and others as you have interest/expertise.
The MISCELLANEOUS and DOCUMENTATION sections are entirely
uncontroversial and may safely be ignored.
To see the changes since 21.4.3, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-3 -r candidate-21-4
To see the changes since release candidate 2, use
cvs diff -r r21-4-4-rc2 -r candidate-21-4
I'm not committed to anything here irrevocably; this is just my first pass
at the next release candidate. Nor are things I've not included here
necessarily ruled out. Let me know if anything in needs out, or anything
out needs in, in your opinion.

New subject: Preparing release for XEmacs 21.4.4
I am going to commit the changes up to Release Candidate 3 to the
release-21-4 branch, and roll tarballs.
There remain known problems in MS Windows runtime and GTK builds. MS
Windows is "supported" so I will delay upload and release another day
or so in hopes that some fix will appear. GTK is still considered
experimental, so I won't wait for fixes on that, but postpone them to
21.4.5. AFAICT none of the recently reported problems on Unix
platforms were introduced by 21.4.3 -> 21.4.4 changes; they have been
present all along in this series. No delay is warranted for them, as
far as Unix is concerned I believe this release is strictly better
than 21.4.3.
This almost surely means that there will a 21.4.5 in the latter half
of August after I return from the U.S. With Ben's endorsement of some
kind of mouse-track fix for 21.4, I'll try to get the patch that
Adrian is advocating into 21.4.5.
Therefore, people who are building from the 21.4 series on GTK/GNOME
and MS Windows may prefer to build from the 21.4.3 tarballs or using
the r21-4-3 CVS tag, rather than using the release-21-4 CVS tag, until
the problems with those platforms are resolved. In 21.4.5. :-)

Hi Stephen, sounds great.
Please see the thread starting at
http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200006/msg00136.html
for more evidence why this mouse-track fix might be considered a BUG on
Windows, as opposed to a feature.
This functionality seems to have worked all along on UNIX.
Hopefully Ben will add his insight on the subject.
Would be great if people on Windows AND UNIX could try my patch, which
is to be found at:

GTK works fine - gnome is what falls down, and this seems to be a generic
gnome linking problem. It fails for some reason with the sun builds as
well as the older ximian stuff. Feh.
I'd say go for it.

experimental, so I won't wait for fixes on that, but postpone them to
21.4.5. AFAICT none of the recently reported problems on Unix
platforms were introduced by 21.4.3 -> 21.4.4 changes; they have been
present all along in this series. No delay is warranted for them, as
far as Unix is concerned I believe this release is strictly better
than 21.4.3.
This almost surely means that there will a 21.4.5 in the latter half
of August after I return from the U.S. With Ben's endorsement of some
kind of mouse-track fix for 21.4, I'll try to get the patch that
Adrian is advocating into 21.4.5.
Therefore, people who are building from the 21.4 series on GTK/GNOME
and MS Windows may prefer to build from the 21.4.3 tarballs or using
the r21-4-3 CVS tag, rather than using the release-21-4 CVS tag, until
the problems with those platforms are resolved. In 21.4.5. :-)

Sort of. I didn't think about it, but _commiting_ those files is one
of the last things that my release script deals with before publishing
the tarballs. Thanks for the warning, anyway.
That kind of inconsistency is one reason why I wanted to warn people
that I was fooling with the branch.
