Hi all;
it's time for the next Cairo snapshot. 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.
Ciao,
Emmanuele.
