What is 1_9 branch for. will we release 1.9.4? If not, we don't need such branch; it only brings troublesome 2.0->1.9 merges. > Then we will move forward 2.0 works on the trunk. 2.0 works includes > * keyword argument support for method definitions > * Module#mix > * Module#prepend > * and others (refinement, classbox, or method shelter?) 2.0 MUST those features? or MAY? The release schedule depends on it. ---------------------------------------- Feature #5056: About 1.9 EOL http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5056 Author: Shyouhei Urabe Status: Assigned Priority: Normal Assignee: Yukihiro Matsumoto Category: Project Target version: 2.0 =begin At RubyKaigi, I was surprised to hear Matz saying "there will be no 1.9.4 because it becomes 2.0". Question 1: are you kidding? or seriously speaking? Question 2: do you have plan(s) for making 1.9 branch just like we have 1.8 branch now? or the whole 1.9 series just die when 2.0 development starts? Question 3: who take care of the 2.0 branch? and who for 1.9 (if any)? Currently yugui is the mentor of 1.9 series. Does she shift to 2.0 mentor and new 1.9 person to appear, or she remains to 1.9 and new one for 2.0? =end -- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
