I am proud to announce the release of Release Candidate 1. This is the
|
||
first in our release candidate series. Once we are satisfied that no
|
||
more bugs exist in openlp.org, we will release the final version of 1.0.
|
||
Remember to post your bug reports in the forum topic.
|
||
|
||
Many thanks once again go to Derek for his part of the development of
|
||
openlp.org 1.0. I don't think we'd be where we are now without him.
|
||
|
||
Just insofar as the next version of openlp.org, we follow the Linux
|
||
kernel's versioning system, with stable releases being even numbers, and
|
||
development releases being odd numbers. So that means that the next
|
||
stable version of openlp.org will be 1.2. All new features will be in
|
||
the development version, version 1.1, while we maintain the 1.0 branch,
|
||
just bringing out bug fixes for any bugs that may still arise.
|
||
|
||
Some of the first jobs we will be doing in version 1.1 will be a major
|
||
code cleanup. This means that internally we will be tidying up the
|
||
openlp.org code, which often results in faster code, and making
|
||
openlp.org more flexible internally. We also will be moving to SQLite 3.
|
||
Currently our song and bible databases are all in SQLite 2.8 format, and
|
||
we want to upgrade to make use of the updated features in version 3.
|
||
|
||
We will obviously also bring in a number of the features that have been
|
||
requested so far. We have a nice long list of features, and we would
|
||
like to implement as many of those as is possible. Once again, however,
|
||
we will have to make a call on some features, on whether or not they
|
||
make sense to be included, and on how long they will take to implement
|
||
versus getting a product out.
|
||
|
||
Hope this helps to clear up what direction we are headed in for the
|
||
short run.
