Subject[Csnd-dev] Csound 7.0 release date
Hi everyone,

I would like to propose that we make a concerted effort to set a release date for 7.0 in the not-too-far
future. At the moment, the 7.0.0 milestone is 94% complete 

https://github.com/csound/csound/milestone/12

and I am only seeing one showstopper (#2105). I think we are very close, so I am hoping
we can now commit to a release date.

best regards

This will be awesome.  It would be great to have it out before the fall semester begins, and even have a few weeks to test it out.
Thank you and all the developers and contributors for the incredible work and effort that when into getting us here!  WOW.  Can't wait.
So excited to use this, share this, teach this, compose and perform with this!

Hi!

What do you think about signing the MacOS paxkage? More recent MacOSes get less and less friendly for non-signed software and it might be a show stopper for beginners. I know it requires a payed developer account but maybe it is worth to organize a crowd funding for that?  (I could take care of that, if needed). Or what is your experience or thoughts about it?

I think on Windows it is nor a real problem.

yes, we have been talking about this and our plan is to have a signed installer. We'll have to figure out the exact mechanism for that.

I have a developer account. Not sure if sharing it would work or not, let's find out.
