Re: making a release

Andrew, as a very recent subscriber to the list I've been following the flurry
of activity recently.  Apart from a sense of frustration showing through to
the the tone of the exchanges, I'm delighted that there is activity.

I have an OS suport contract with Oracle.

Oracle recently pulled Planner from the desktop version of their OS on the
basis that Planner, as a FOSS package, is no-longer maintained.

After a support ticket ran its course, I had numerous email exchanges with
Oracle in which also perhaps my tone vented a deep sense of frustration.

Planner has saved my bacon, period.  I can't pretend to understand or have
any experience with Bugzilla or Git, so much of the exchanges went over my
head.

So, for the avoidance of doubt, will you or other GNOME developer
contributors, please clarify whether Planner is or is not being actively
maintained.  If it is, and given how much we pay for a support contract
from Oracle for their OS, I would like to repudiate Oracle's claim that
it is not being maintained and so ask them to reverse their recent
decision to remove it.  (Understand that this means that when Customers
apply Oracle's monthly updates, Planner gets deleted from disk).

The version that had been being shipped by Oracle until earlier this
year, was Planner 0.14.4

Thank you.

So I've just opened the pull request, and was told to suggest you make a
release -- it's been a long time...

Say, 0.14.7 or even 0.15.0?

It would allow many distros enjoy all the changes made during that
period and simplify the building process for Nixpkgs.
