Hello,
Now that GDB 7.9.1 is out the door, it's time for us to look at
the next release, which I tentatively numbered 7.10.
I felt that the only period I wanted to avoid was Aug, where a lot
of people would traditionally take time off. That leaves with
a release either before or after. Looking at the NEWS file, I see
a lot of goodness has already been added since 7.9; and following
the adage of "release early, release often", I think we can try
to be a little aggressive and try to aim for branching on Monday,
June 15th - or about a month from now.
Thoughts?
I've created the wiki page for that release:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.10_Release
If there are changes not in master yet, that you think should be
part of the release, of if you know of blocking issues and/or
regressions, can you please let us know. We'll use the wiki to
track all of them and make sure we don't forget any.
Thank you!
