Tasks needed before the next release.
|
||
|
||
* TO BE DONE SHORTLY BEFORE RELEASE
|
||
|
||
** Check for widow and orphan lines in manuals;
|
||
make sure all the pages really look ok in the manual as formatted.
|
||
|
||
** Regenerate the pdf versions of the reference cards in etc/refcards/.
|
||
|
||
** Ask maintainers of refcard translations to update them.

** Remove temporary +++/--- lines in NEWS.
|
||
|
||
** Try to reorder NEWS: most important things first, related items together.
|
||
|
||
* WINDOWS SUPPORT BUGS
|
||
|
||
These don't need to be fixed before a release, but we call the
|
||
attention of Windows users to fixing them.
|
||
|
||
** Drew Adams 12 Aug bug rpt: overlay display artifact: trace left behind
|
||
Windows only bug. Bug appears only when Cleartype enabled, probably related
|
||
to the hack introduced on 2005-07-01 to fix some other Cleartype problem.
|
||
|
||
** henman@it.to-be.co.jp 09 Aug 2006: ispell.el problem on Cygwin.
|
||
(Did we decide that is unreproducible?)
|
||
|
||
* BUGS WAITING FOR MORE USER INPUT
|
||
|
||
** raman@users.sf.net, sep 7: Emacs 23.0.50: Segfaults in alloc.c (batch process)
|
||
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-09/msg00690.html
|
||
|
||
** undefined reference getopt_long
|
||
Report by Daniel C. Bastos <dbast0s@yahoo.com.br> on bug-gnu-emacs
|
||
from 2007-08-27. Impossible to procede without more input from OP (as
|
||
of 20070912, emails are bouncing) or someone else who can reproduce this.
|
||
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-08/msg01497.html
|
||
|
||
** emacs-22.1 with GTK problems (with patches)
|
||
Only outstanding issue seems to be whether Solaris 2.6 GTK can be
|
||
supported in the absence of recursive mutexes, via a change to
|
||
alloc.c, or whether configure should abort.

** Does deleting frames run Lisp code? If so, can we get rid of that?
|
||
It is a dangerous design.
|
||
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-09/msg01330.html
|
||
|
||
** Why were the calls to x_fully_uncatch_errors commented out in eval.c?

||
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-09/msg01987.html
|
||

||
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-05/msg01339.html
|
||
|
||
** rms: gnus-dired.el is a mistake. Those features should not
|
||
be part of Gnus. They should be moved to some other part of Emacs.
|
||
rsteib: Gnus dependencies in `gnus-dired.el' (and `mailcap.el') have been
|
||
minimized. I don't know what is left to do here.

||
|
||

||
|
||
The first line of every tutorial must begin with text ending in a
|
||

|
||
language. This should be followed by "See end for copying conditions",
|
||
likewise in the respective language.
|
||
|
||
After each file name, on the same line or the following line, come the
|
||
names of the people who have checked it.
