1 Tasks needed before the next release. | |
2 | |
3 * TO BE DONE SHORTLY BEFORE RELEASE | |
4 | |
5 ** `undo-ask-before-discard', currently set to t for debugging purposes | |
6 has to be set to nil: when t, it can leak memory and cause other problems. | |
7 | |
8 ** Update release dates of manuals. | |
9 | |
10 ** Spell check the manuals. | |
11 | |
12 ** Get rid of overfull and underfull boxes in manuals. | |
13 | |
14 ** Check for widow and orphan lines in manuals; | |
15 make sure all the pages really look ok in the manual as formatted. | |
16 | |
17 ** Update facemenu-unlisted-faces, adding whatever other | |
18 face name prefixes should be in it for good results. | |
19 | |
20 ** Update AUTHORS. | |
21 | |
22 ** Regenerate the postscript files of the reference cards in etc. | |
23 | |
24 ** Ask maintainers of refcard translations to update them. | |
25 | |
26 ** Check what should be deleted or updated in MORE.STUFF. | |
27 | |
28 ** Send an email to the various distributions, including the GNOME | |
29 and KDE projects, to use the new Emacs icons in etc/images/icons. | |
30 | |
31 ** Ensure MH-E 8.0 has been released. | |
32 Assigned to Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>. | |
33 | |
34 * NEW FEATURES | |
35 | |
36 ** Rework how fringe bitmaps are defined and used. | |
37 Currently, bitmap usage and bitmap appearence are "mixed-up" in a | |
38 one-level representation. It would be cleaner to split the | |
39 representation into a two-level model where first level maps | |
40 bitmap usage to a bitmap name, and second level maps bitmap name to | |
41 a bitmap appearence. | |
42 [Assigned to KFS] | |
43 | |
44 * FATAL ERRORS | |
45 | |
46 ** Investigate reported crashes in compact_small_strings. | |
47 | |
48 ** Investigate reported crashes related to using an | |
49 invalid pointer from string_free_list. | |
50 | |
51 * BUGS | |
52 | |
53 ** Ronan Keryell's Sep 23 bug about "tramp sudo:: and version control on RCS" | |
54 | |
55 ** TCP server processes do not work on Windows. | |
56 | |
57 TCP/IP server processes created with `make-network-process' consume | |
58 excesive CPU on some Windows environments. Usages of 50% and 100% | |
59 CPU time have been observed on different Window XP configurations. | |
60 Seems to be a problem in sys_select in w32proc.c. | |
61 | |
62 * DOCUMENTATION | |
63 | |
64 ** Add a node to the Lisp manual describing key sequences from the | |
65 Lisp point of view. | |
66 | |
67 ** Check man/info.texi. | |
68 | |
69 ** Add missing years in copyright notices of all files. | |
70 | |
71 Please record your name here and say which part of the distribution | |
72 you're going to handle. | |
