As a quick glance of the number of commits per month (see in the end of this message), alsa-lib is not so actively developed recently. (except for topology APIs) I think releasing every 2 months makes the release maintenance effort more hard than its actual advantage. It better to release alsa-lib for 2 or more kernel release cycles. >>> alsa-lib 1.1.0 was released in the beginning of November, which was >>> just after 4.3 kernel release.

But at least we can start > working on releasing. For the idea itself to release alsa-lib 1.1.1 in this month, I agree. (In this case, I might hurry up for my proposals of APIs to add control element set, after my work for Dice drivers will be merged into linux-next branch.) >>> Jaroslav, how about releasing alsa-lib 1.1.1 around that? >>> There are a few pending patches, but they should be available soon. >> >> -- >> ~Vinod $ cd alsa-lib.git $ git log --pretty=format:"%ad" --date=short | sed -E 's/(....-..)-../\1/g' | sort | uniq --count 21 1998-08 7 1998-09 4 1998-10 54 1998-11 12 1998-12 14 1999-01 6 1999-02 6 1999-03 8 1999-05 10 1999-06 11 1999-07 16 1999-08 8 1999-09next 1 1999-10 23 1999-11 42 1999-12 33 2000-01 15 2000-02 17 2000-03 21 2000-04 30 2000-05 33 2000-06 27 2000-07 38 2000-08 29 2000-09 34 2000-10 21 2000-11 32 2000-12 36 2001-01 59 2001-02 41 2001-03 40 2001-04 29 2001-05 66 2001-06 49 2001-07 24 2001-08 31 2001-09 42 2001-10 61 2001-11 47 2001-12 17 2002-01 20 2002-02 21 2002-03 15 2002-04 8 2002-05 19 2002-06 12 2002-07 4 2002-08 15 2002-09 37 2002-10 9 2002-11 4 2002-12 12 2003-01 80 2003-02 48 2003-03 8 2003-04 11 2003-05 16 2003-06 32 2003-07 14 2003-08 13 2003-09 16 2003-10 7 2003-11 12 2003-12 28 2004-01 30 2004-02 34 2004-03 13 2004-04 19 2004-05 6 2004-06 8 2004-07 10 2004-08 20 2004-09 5 2004-10 11 2004-11 10 2004-12 41 2005-01 30 2005-02 31 2005-03 27 2005-04 59 2005-05 25 2005-06 1 2005-07 25 2005-08 21 2005-09 5 2005-10 22 2005-11 18 2005-12 23 2006-01 15 2006-02 29 2006-03 31 2006-04 13 2006-05 9 2006-06 8 2006-07 16 2006-08 21 2006-09 24 2006-10 5 2006-11 8 2006-12 7 2007-01 7 2007-02 17 2007-03 2 2007-04 9 2007-05 5 2007-06 10 2007-07 20 2007-08 8 2007-09 11 2007-10 19 2007-11 10 2007-12 31 2008-01 20 2008-02 11 2008-03 5 2008-04 2 2008-05 11 2008-06 9 2008-07 5 2008-08 7 2008-09 6 2008-10 15 2008-11 2 2008-12 10 2009-01 8 2009-02 2 2009-03 4 2009-04 3 2009-05 12 2009-06 19 2009-07 14 2009-08 11 2009-09 1 2009-10 15 2009-11 4 2009-12 2 2010-01 2 2010-02 3 2010-03 5 2010-04 1 2010-05 5 2010-07 15 2010-08 4 2010-09 11 2010-10 13 2010-11 11 2010-12 15 2011-01 1 2011-02 7 2011-03 6 2011-04 7 2011-05 9 2011-06 4 2011-07 3 2011-08 6 2011-09 3 2011-10 1 2011-11 1 2011-12 7 2012-01 1 2012-02 5 2012-03 4 2012-04 5 2012-05 2 2012-06 10 2012-07 9 2012-08 23 2012-09 5 2012-10 5 2012-11 5 2012-12 6 2013-01 3 2013-02 2 2013-03 14 2013-04 18 2013-05 5 2013-06 3 2013-07 4 2013-08 3 2013-09 2 2013-10 8 2013-11 1 2013-12 5 2014-01 9 2014-02 7 2014-03 2 2014-04 1 2014-05 11 2014-06 14 2014-07 7 2014-08 28 2014-09 12 2014-11 1 2014-12 7 2015-01 7 2015-02 5 2015-03 7 2015-04 3 2015-05 11 2015-06 22 2015-07 12 2015-08 9 2015-09 7 2015-10 20 2015-11 4 2016-01 5 2016-02 9 2016-03 Regards Takashi Sakamoto
