I have preliminary release dates for 2.6.6 and 3.0.0-RC1.
For 2.6.6 we need to release it as soon as possible after New Year,
and the first opportunity seems to be Friday 07.01.2022.
Final 3.0.0 is expected in March. As RC needs to be released a week
earlier than the final release, the first possible date for 3.0.0-RC1
is Friday 25.02.2022.
A couple of updates to these.
- 2.6.6 is likely the last release from S2_6, unless security
vulnerabilities or other serious issues are found. The branch builds
without issues also with the current development version on gcc-12, so
it should be buildable in its current state for some time to the
future.
- I have a low number of patches in queue for S2_6, and no future
patches in sight. It might make sense to make the 2.6.6 release
earlier than the date stated above. No point in sitting on a ready
codebase.
- As far as I know there has been no string changes to S2_6 since the
2.6.5 release
- Also S3_0 is getting new stuff relatively slowly. So it's possible
that it too get released earlier than the date specified above
(despite beta3 announcing "March" as the release date to look for)
