Hi,

cmake 2.8.3rc4 is available for testing.

Please give this one a good and thourough try.

During the cmake 2.8.3 development cycle there was a compatiblity problem 
between cmake and KDE 4.5.0 and 4.5.1. 

We tried hard to fix that in cmake (it was more or less KDE's fault, but still 
upgrading cmake must not break a build), and hope we didn't introduce any 
other issues.

So, please give this version some extra testing, so we can sure nothing gets 
broken wit this release.

KDE 4.5.2 and trunk should be fine.


Thanks
Alex

Subject: [cmake-developers] CMake 2.8.3-rc4 ready for testing!
Date: Saturday 30 October 2010
From: David Cole <david.cole at kitware.com>
To: cmake-developers at cmake.org

The CMake 2.8.3 release candidate stream continues!
You can find the source and binaries here:
http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/?C=M;O=D

EXCEPT: There are not yet Irix or Sun pre-built binary
installers available for CMake 2.8.3-rc4. There is a
failing (HTML documentation validity checking) test on
some platforms that appears to be unrelated to any CMake
source code changes. That test failure is preventing the
release building process from completing today on those
platforms. If that issue clears up soon, I'll re-do the
installers on those platforms. If not, just use rc3, or
build from source. We'll address this before the final
release.

This will be the LAST release candidate for 2.8.3
unless a major regression is reported. So please
try it on your projects and let us know right away
about any problems.

Since we switched to git, and a new workflow, we're
expecting to do more frequent releases. Because of
that, our release candidate phases will be shorter
than they have been historically. So, if you want to
test this out and ask for a fix, do it soon, or hold your
peace till the next release!

Following is the list of changes in this release.
Since we switched to git, this list is now the
'git log' one line summary written by the named
CMake developers.

Please try this version of CMake on your projects
and report any issues to the list or the bug tracker.

Happy building!

-Dave
