Subject[Csnd-dev] Preparing for release
Hi all,

I think finally we seem to be in good shape for releasing 7.0.

 
We will do some final checks and the UGen API may still have changes after 7.0, but I see no major blockers now. If anyone knows of one, please say.

Hello,

I created a pull request to enable full releases for Csound: https://github.com/csound/csound/pull/3390

With these changes, applying the release tag on a PR against the develop branch creates a beta release, while using the master branch creates a full release. I have tested and verified this behavior on my fork.

Thanks,
    Werner

  • We should aim to do it during or just before the ICSC
  • We need to contact Linux distros to give a heads up
  • MacOS installer needs to be signed
  • We need to figure out how to make full releases instead of Beta (if Werner is reading this: could you give us instructions)
  • We need a full set of Release Notes
