I decided (I hope Johannes approves) to delay alpha2 until Tuesday next week aka September 2nd. This step is taken in the hopes that the additional time will mean we can skip doing an alpha3 and go straight to beta1 before the end of September. Obviously a release in October is now becoming quite tricky to say the least, but so it goes I guess. Currently open are: - GD (Pierre) - ODBC patches (Derick) - Fileinfo refactoring (Derick/Ilia/Mikko) - Fileinfo tests (Derick/Felix) - OpenSSL (Pierre) - OpenLDAP (Pierre) - Curly braces support for namespaces (Marcus, not ready for alpha2) - Move ext/ming to PECL (Pierre) Note that the Zend Signal Patch is no longer planned for 5.3. There are currently too many open questions (ask Dmitry) and too many more important things to spend our time on. These items should be done no later than this Friday, so that we can prepare things for a release on Tuesday for all platforms on Tuesday without too much of a rush. Again we want to make sure that this alpha2 release is solid enough that we can move into beta for the next release. Please keep us RMs in the loop about anything relevant that could sabotage this plan. regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith mls@pooteeweet.org
