Ralph's suggestion sounds fine to me. Comments anyone? I everyone agrees I will start nagging at the beginning of December. Marty Ralph Lange wrote:Maybe announce a new version at the meeting for Christmas and ship it mid-December (so that it sounds ahead of schedule)?
We need a new (tested) version for the USPAS course at Baton Rouge in January.I don't want to have to teach students that they have to write subroutine record routines in C++ and to include that horrible registration kludge. To fix that I committed the changes to add the function() keyword to .dbd files, but that happened since 3.14beta2. I wouldn't want to teach using an untested version, although I guess providing it passes everything on Linux (RH7.3) I'd be happy.
Ideally the sysadmin guy would put it on the disk image for ghosting to all the student machines rather than us having to install it separately. The only deadline he's given me so far is "sooner the better" but I'll try to find out what that really means. My hope is that mid-December will be Ok, but certainly no later, which probably means that serious testing should start as soon as possible after the JLAB meeting.
