I have now built all components on OSX and I have the distribution/installation
system defined. What I would really like to see now is some sort of
roadmap for the release. I am not sure what steps should be taken, but
perhaps John can take over now and tell us what to do. Perhaps we should
have a re-structuring of the sourceforge page, where some projects might
go, and we have a clear space for the csound5 packages.

If we want to go for a release before the end of the year, which was the idea
at Sounds Electric, we should get cracking at it. Let us have a roadmap!

My (private) roadmap was a release of 5.0rc1 on Dec 25 this year.
There is a place on Sourceforge for csound5 releases, with only a
5.0rc0 for Linux there at present.

As soon as term and teaching finishes I was hoping to move into this
with some time.  The biggest problems I see at present are:
1: Exactly what should be in a release.  There is clearly disagreement
between me and everyone(?) else.  I still have not had a clear answer
to the questions I asked.  I think installation without root
permission matters.
2: Looping (loscil) still does not work (I just have not had time).
That is high priority in the semester break
3: Trivial mechanisms to do it.

  If I sent you the relevant OSX archive(s), would you place them there?

On OSX, I am going to go ahead with root authorisation, as this seems
to be quite common for a number of packages. This can be different on
other systems.

We can incorporate that when it's ready.

On OSX, I have a trivial install mechanism ready.

I will definitely be ready for 25/Dec. So I'll follow your lead.

I am thrilled that we finally have a goal in sight!  All of you who have
worked so hard to get to this point will be making a LOT of people VERY
happy this holiday season :-)

Unfortunately, now that I am working again, this is one of my two busiest
times of the year.  There is still a ton of work for me to do in updating
the Mills interface.  (I have not yet even compiled any of the utility
modules and I have to redo most of the opcode plugins now that they have
been merged).

I am guessing that no one will be too saddened if there is not a
simultaneous release of Csound 5 for MacOS 9 ...
