I'm thinking of spinning a 1.17.6 release by the end of this week, so if you have any pending merge requests please ensure that they are either merged or review-ready and you have a reviewer. I created the 1.17.6 milestone: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/cairo/cairo/-/milestones/3 If you have developer access, please add the issues/MRs you care about to that milestone; otherwise, ping me (@ebassi) on GitLab, and I'll do it for you. My plan is to cut 1.17.6 as is, to get the ball rolling; also, to shake down the release process. For 1.17.8, the plan is: - clean up the repository - remove old documentation files - move documentation to Markdown - consolidate boilerplate/build gunk - Meson parity with Autotools on Linux, Windows, and macOS - drop the Autotools build - drop the known broken/unmaintained/abandoned upstream backends: - drm - qt - beos - OS/2 - cogl - directfb - OpenVG - put the GL backend "on notice" - if somebody shows up and is willing to review and fix the issues, we can keep it; otherwise, it goes The deadline for the 1.17.8 release is in late-June/early-July. I've created a 1.17.8 milestone for it: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/cairo/cairo/-/milestones/4 Depending on the result for the GL backend, and a couple of additional things I'm working on to simplify the build, we might do an intermediate 1.17.10. I want to spin 1.18.0 by late August, in order to be picked up by Fedora 35 and Ubuntu 21.10.

Hi all;

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/cairo/cairo/-/mi= lestones/3

If you have developer access, pleas= e add the issues/MRs you care about to that milestone; otherwise, ping me (= @ebassi) on GitLab, and I'll do it for you.

My plan is to = cut 1.17.6 as is, to get the ball rolling; also, to shake down the release = process.

For 1.17.8, the plan is:

=C2=A0- clean up the reposi= tory
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- remove old documentation files
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- mov= e documentation to Markdown
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- consolidate boilerplate/build= gunk
=C2=A0- Meson parity with Autotools on Linux, Windows, and macOS=C2=A0- drop the Autotools build
=C2=A0- drop the known broken/unmaint= ained/abandoned upstream backends:
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- drm
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- = qt
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- beos
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- OS/2
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- cogl

=C2=A0- put the GL back= end "on notice"
=C2=A0 =C2=A0- if somebody shows up and is wil= ling to review and fix the issues, we can keep it; otherwise, it goes
The deadline for the 1.17.8 release is in late-June/early-July. I= 9;ve created a 1.17.8 milestone for it:

https://gitlab.= freedesktop.org/cairo/cairo/-/milestones/4

Depending on the result for the GL backend, and a couple of additi= onal things I'm working on to simplify the build, we might do an interm= ediate 1.17.10.

I want to spin 1.18.0 by late August, in order to = be picked up by Fedora 35 and Ubuntu 21.10.
