Bugs fixed in 1.16
- this section will be filled in in due course
2017-05-04 12:40:29 +00:00
2018-03-20 10:27:38 +00:00
More than XXX bugs have been fixed during the development of 1.16.
2017-05-04 12:40:29 +00:00
This list does not include issues that have been cherry-picked into the
2018-03-20 10:27:38 +00:00
stable 1.16 branch and fixed there as well, all fixes that ended up in
the 1.16 branch are also included in 1.16.
2018-03-03 22:55:56 +00:00
This list also does not include issues that have been fixed without a
bug report in bugzilla, so the actual number of fixes is much higher.
2017-05-04 12:40:29 +00:00
2018-03-20 10:27:38 +00:00
Stable 1.16 branch
2017-05-04 12:40:29 +00:00
2018-03-20 10:27:38 +00:00
After the 1.16.0 release there will be several 1.16.x bug-fix releases
2018-03-03 22:55:56 +00:00
which will contain bug fixes which have been deemed suitable for a
stable branch, but no new features or intrusive changes will be added to
2018-03-20 10:27:38 +00:00
a bug-fix release usually. The 1.16.x bug-fix releases will be made from
the git 1.16 branch, which is a stable branch.
2018-03-19 20:29:28 +00:00

Our next major feature release will be 1.16, and 1.15 will be the
unstable development version leading up to the stable 1.16 release. The
development of 1.15/1.16 will happen in the git master branch.

The plan for the 1.16 development cycle is yet to be confirmed, but it
2018-03-20 10:27:38 +00:00
is expected that feature freeze will be around August 2017 followed by
2018-03-03 22:55:56 +00:00
several 1.15 pre-releases and the new 1.16 stable release in September.
2017-05-04 12:40:29 +00:00
