pgAdmin III Release plan

From
Andreas Pflug
Date:
As a hint for our translators, and anybody who's interested, here my
thoughts about the next releases of pgAdmin III:

There are really few bug reports about our second beta (actually:
zero!), so we should be able to release V1.2 this month. If nothing
happens at all, we even could target Oct. 15 or so. IMHO we should
include all translations in the state as they are at the moment of release.

After that, we should try to address a V1.4 version very soon, which
focuses on pg_hba/postgresql.conf editing, guru hints and
program/language update check/support. It would probably be A Good Thing
(tm), if this is done when PostgreSQL 8.0 is released.

We can't expect 30+ translators to keep up with this speed, so we need
some kind of infrastructure so users can update an incomplete
translation easily.

Comments?

Regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,

I don't want to be too negative (IMHO the beta2 is ok) but we may have no bug report because of the lack of packages:
I was not able too produce debian's ones at the moment (planned for this night if vera's ok with that) and it seems
thatneither FC/RH/SUSE nor BSD ones were produced... 

So we are only able to get a  proper feedback for win32 & slackware. IMHO not enough.

Maybe we should urge packagers to upload files and w8 for a small period after the proper announcement on
pgadmin-support/ pgadmin-hackers list. I'll urge myself, don't shout at me ;) 

Just my...
Regards,
Raphaël

I do partially agree. While most bugs are quite platform independent, we
certainly should fix all package/platform related bugs before 1.2
release (should read all *known*, of course :-).
Admittedly, I don't really know about the current sanity state of our
packages.

Regards,
Andreas

I've just finished the build for debian unstable and it built smoothly. While testing a bit, I remembered an idea I had
butnever dropped to the team, maybe not for this release but for the next one, could we add a feedback while connecting
toa PostgreSQL host: 
if you try to connect to a non-existent server (server down for example), the timeout can be quite long to come and the
app_seem_ to hang (it does not, it just lacks user feedback). It may be useful to the user to have a small window or
whateveryou prefer indicating that something is really going on and why not a n informational message with a small
sentenceor progress bar indicating the time to go before the tcp timeout. 

I'll build debian/testing packages tomorrow and upload the hole bunch of files a little bit after.

Have a nice night!

Oct.15 sounds good, I'll finish my translation fully, probably:)
