Hi, all,

I could not find a good explanation of the releasing policy for OpenSER. I mean, 1.2.0 was released on March 12, 2007. I know that the future release is 1.3.0. But is there going to be 1.2.1 ever released?

Hi Anatoly,

we discussed in the last IRC meeting that there would be a minor release, e.g. 1.2.1. There is no exact date yet (in the conference we talked about "mid of may") so expect it in the next two weeks. I'll probably create a page on the wiki with an explanation of the release policy, if i found nothing on the openser webpage with more informations about this.

There were many bugs fixed in 1.2.x since 1.2.0 was released. I think I read a developer's reply that the best and most stable OpenSER 1.2.x release sources can only be downloaded from the SVN 1.2 branch. Is this true? And what is the trunk version in SVN? Is it only for the next release (1.3.0) and changes to the trunk do not go to 1.2.x branch automatically?

The trunk is only for 1.3. Only bugfixes get backported to the 1.2 branch.

The download page (http://www.openser.org/mos/view/Download/) unfortunately does not tell that to get the most stable 1.2.x release one has to use SVN Download. I think most of the OpenSER users just download the released 1.2.0 sources.

The 1.2 branch is technically not a release, as it changes over the time. So the most stable 1.2 release is at the moment 1.2.0. :-)

By the way, looks like the so called "daily" SVN snapshots have not been posted since April 23. Is this a known problem?

What link you do you use? I see an "openser-devel-svn-latest.tgz 12-Mar-2007 02:11 5.7M" snapshot there..

Cheers,

Henning
