[RkWard-devel] Release plans?

[Thomas Friedrichsmeier]

Hi all,

I'm currently pondering, when to release the next version of rkward. I see a 
couple of issues, that I would like to see resolved, soon, but that 
personally I don't think should hold up a release by themselves:

- 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1183922&group_id=50231&atid=459010 
(improved type-checking for varslots): Currently e.g. the scatterplot plugin 
will not accept variables in rkward-generated data.frames. Still it is very 
useful for other R objects, so this is not much of a show-stopper in my 
opinion

- 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1183931&group_id=50231&atid=459007 
(crashes in plugins): Since this does not happen often, I think this is not a 
major issue, given that rkward is still labeled a technology preview

- 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1189698&group_id=50231&atid=459010 
(restructuring plugin directory layout): This is nagging me quite a bit, but 
isn't visible to end-users.

I know some of you check out the CVS version once in a while, so if you think 
differently on the mentioned issues or have noted other important issues in 
current CVS, please speak up.

Pierre: Did you / or you planning to start on the Command log (watch) 
improvements we discussed? If so, can you give a rough estimate of how soon 
you will be able to provide a working version? (If that's not much more than 
a week, I'd suggest we delay the release until you're done, otherwise, it 
might be a good idea to rush the release before we start on our next items)

Any further issues to consider?

Thomas
