<div dir="ltr"><div>The time between major releases is too long. I fixed 6 major video bugs a year ago and with the Beta and RC releases they will not be out till Easter. This is not a complaint but a fact of life, when we need to release good bug-free software.</div><div><br></div><div>So the question becomes what do we do with the web Refactoring and a possible new Renderer. Wait another year?</div><div><br></div><div>OpenLP is getting more stable and the bug re-writes should be getting less but we need to be able to continue to release so here is a proposal.</div><div><br></div><div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><ol><li style="margin-left:15px">Release 2.6 with current functionality (maybe we fix up some of the small improvements) and target it for Easter </li><li style="margin-left:15px">Add web updates into 2.8 </li><li style="margin-left:15px">Target renderer to 2.8 or 3.0 depending on how long it takes to make stable</li></ol><div>As the core code is stable now should only fully function features be added so we can release a version each year. </div><div><br></div><div>Maybe change the naming OpenLP 2016 and OpenLP 2017 targetted for the 1st quarter each year would be a way forward. with bug fixes targetted at Sept and Dec unless there are major showstoppers like HTML changes at SongSelect or Bible Gateway.</div></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thoughts and improvements or agreement please.</div><div><br></div><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">Tim Bentley (TRB143)<br>Home@TRARBentley.net<div style="display:inline"></div></div>
