[avrdude-dev] Release soon?

[Brian Dean]

Hi,

I'm just wondering what we need to do to tidy up for a release?
FreeBSD is preparing for their 4.8 Release and the Ports Freeze is set
for March 5 (only critical changes after that).  It'd have been really
great to get 'avrdude' into FreeBSD's 4.8-RELEASE, but I doubt that is
going to happen with the short notice of the Freeze.  But miracles
have been known to happen from time to time :-)

So do we have a short list of stuff to be done?  I know the texinfo
manual needs work.  The man page is probably OK.

What about the Windows port?  Any remaining issues to be worked
through?

Linux?

The FreeBSD side of things is looking pretty good ... I've been using
the stuff from the repo for all my stuff and haven't had any problems.
The main thing I'll need to do is work out the actual Makefile for the
port itself (not part of avrdude).  The previous version (AVRPROG) had
no dependencies, nor auto* stuff, etc, so it was very simple to
integrate.

Anyway ... if folks have time this week, it'd be cool to polish up and
produce our first release of this.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
-Brian
