Subject: Time for an xfsprogs "alpha1" release?
Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2013 16:17:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52322F7A.8060405@sandeen.net> (raw)

With all of the changes for CRC filesystems in xfsprogs git now, I'm wondering if it'd be a good idea to do a "3.2.0-alpha1" sort of release.

I know it's not yet feature complete, but I think there would be value in getting a version-stamped tarball out there for testing - it could filter to rawhide-ish distros, and get a bit more airtime while the remaining bits get worked out.

We'd probably want a nice readme about what's new and what's not yet done, caveats, etc, but I think it'd be worth getting it out there into the hands of willing testers, w/o requiring them to do a build from git.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
-Eric
