IanJ said that he was ill today, so I wanted to make sure that we were ready for a proper 4.3 release tomorrow. There are at least the following outstanding things which need to be done: * Remove the ''-rc'' from the ASCII art in README * Remove ''-unstable'' from the version and replace it with ''.0'' * Disable debug=y * Tag RELEASE-4.3.0 Anything else? I''ve got a local branch with most of the above changes, minus the tag... I can post it somewhere to pull from, or send it to the list, if anyone wants. -George

If so, do you know if the xl autoballooning issue I posted recently is fixed? -- Steven Haigh Email: netwiz@crc.id.au Web: https://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897 Fax: (03) 8338 0299

Oops. So the only thing actually left is to change "-unstable" to ".0" in xen/Makefile XEN_EXTRAVERSION.> >> * Tag RELEASE-4.3.0 >> >> Anything else? > > I can''t think of anything, but there must be a checklist somewhere > on xenbits which he''s frequently referring to.There''s xenbits:~xen/release-checklist, but it seems mainly to do with managing branches, tags, tarballs &c, rather than things to change in the source file. If there hasn''t been any testing over the weekend, I think we''re going to have to do a force-push. Jan, can you change the version in xen/Makefile? I think the plan is to make the public announcement about 9am EDT (2pm UK time) tomorrow, so we do have a little bit of time to sort things out tomorrow; but it would be good if doing the tarball and a force push was all that was required. -George
