samba - Apr 2009 - [Release Planning 3.4] 3.4.0pre1 will be delayed

Hey folks,

the release of Samba 3.4.0pre1 will be delayed until April 30, 2009 due to
the samr access check bugs and bug #6263 (Domain login problems in Windows
XP without SP3).

@Developers: There is still some space left to place your changes in the
release notes.

So the bug Peter Rindfuss reported yesterday is acknowleged by this?

If so, it would be the third time in a row I plan to upgrade to the latest, so 
called stable, 3.2 release of Samba, but have to cancel it due to a 
show-stopper bug. Remember bug #6040.

I do appreciate the hard work of the Samba dev-team. But wouldn't it be wise
to maintain only two versions of Samba: one stable release which is not being 
developed, but only gets bugs fixed and one development version which contain 
the latest and greatest new features?

Introducing new bugs like #6263 in a new 'historical' version (=3.2.10)
really
kills the willing of management to have Samba servers in production
environments.

Karolin, Guenther has fixed #6263 and I am waiting on confirmation
on my checked in fixes for the samr access check bugs.

Just FYI. Thanks for pointing out the problems for us. Please
let us know if there are any other show-stoppers you need us
to work on asap.
