Release Schedule for 2.1.x

This is a draft release schedule for unstable 2.1.x releases of gnucash, which will eventually lead to the stable 2.2.0 release of gnucash with new features.

Goal

Goal for 2.2.0: Now that the gnome2 port is working well, we are introducing some new features. These are

  •  ?
  • Scheduled Transactions re-work.
  • Port to Windows available

Purpose of all 2.1.x releases: Any 2.1.x is not yet stable, but is meant to provide easier access to the current source code for wider testing. Also, at some point in time the 2.1.x series should go into a string freeze so that translators can fully concentrate on their translation work.

Requirements of 2.1.x releases

Caveats

Caveats for testers:

  • Any 2.1.x version might crash unexpectedly at any point during runtime. If you test some serious work in a 2.1.x release, make sure you hit "Save" after ever non-trivial workstep.
  • The documentation has had screenshots updated, however, most help texts usually only refers to the 2.0.x or even 1.8.x series. Everyone is invited to help improve the documentation; see Development on how to get involved.

Schedule

Proposed schedule:

All dates are the Saturday of a weekend. It is proposed to have a release every other week or in three week intervals.

Release Schedule for 2.0.x

Actual release dates:

Release Schedule for 1.9.x

This is a draft release schedule for unstable 1.9.x releases of gnucash, which will eventually lead to the stable 2.0.0 release of gnome2-based gnucash.

Goal

Goal for 2.0.0: For the first 2.0.0 release the plan is to finish porting those parts of gnucash that have already been started (i.e. new windowing system, account tree, commodities tree, etc.), but not to port any additional features unless absolutely required.

Purpose of all 1.9.x releases: Any 1.9.x is not yet stable, but is meant to provide easier access to the current source code for wider testing. Also, at some point in time the 1.9.x series should go into a string freeze so that translators can fully concentrate on their translation work.
