Sound good to me -- can we have an updated Libpack with a fixed libwebp by then?

Re: Set date for 0.21.3 release

Re: 1.0 feature freeze in sight

We need to agree on a naming scheme now. For the time being we will continue with semantic versioning: I think we can expect that there will be a 1.0.1, a 1.0.2, etc. Whether to continue with semver or to switch to calendar versioning for the next major release (e.g. are we calling it 1.1 or 2025.2...

Re: crash switching work bench

Since SVG support in Qt4 was rather bad we had to use the Webkit engine to render SVG icons correctly under Windows and apparently a segfault happens there. wmayer is it still necessary for us to keep the SVG plugin around? It appears to be the only place left in the code using WebKit, so if that S...

It's not like we're going to stop work after 1.0 is released. It's a version number, not a shutdown. If you have items to add to the roadmap for 1.1 (or whatever we call the thing after 1.0), then let's get them on there.

Re: FreeCAD build requires gtest (googletest), but the build system does not check for it

Thanks, I completely forgot about checking for any new git submodules when something is missing. That would probably be a good "best practice" for us when we add new submodules -- our cMake scripts can look for the existence of the expected subdirectory and throw an error telling you to r...

Re: freecadpip not found in freecad 0.21.2 via apt-get install

"How do I install a Python package into FreeCAD?" is a pretty common question, and the answer is annoyingly complicated. If that program does what it sounds like it does (I have never heard of it before now) then yes, I think it could be a good idea.

GoogleTest is included in the source tree via a submodule -- you must run

Code: Select all

git submodule update --init

Re: Issue with forum register

Yes, I see it. I have corrected the email address (yes, there was a typo in it). You should be able to validate that account now, and then we can delete the extra one.
