We're running a bit later than usual on getting ready for the new release
|
|
|
|
this time, but we think you'll agree that it was worth the wait for us
|
|
|
|
to get all (or at least) most of the kinks worked out. One of the most
|
|
|
|
user-visible changes is the new REQUIRES variable in the .info files.
|
|
|
|
For a description, see this git commit in our templates repo:

I'd like to take this time to welcome our newest admin, Matteo Bernardini
|
|
|
|
(ponce) to the team and thank him for the huge amount of testing and
|
|
|
|
updating of various scripts that he did. On that note, I should thank
|
|
|
|
David Somero (XGizzmo) for once again doing the automated build testing
|
|
|
|
(and providing error logs) for this release, and of course all of his
|
|
|
|
fixes and updates along the way. Then there's Heinz Wiesinger (pprkut) for
|
|
|
|
the usual fixes and updates, but he's also done a lot of work behind the
|
|
|
|
scenes with database updates and our custom admin tools. I'd be remiss if
|
|
|
|
I didn't point out the never-ending job of server maintenance and upkeep
|
|
|
|
done by the SBo co-founder, Erik Hanson (erik), and that's on top of the
|
|
|
|
usual fixes and updates all over the SBo tree. Michiel van Wessem (BP{k})
|
|
|
|
and Niels Horn (niels_horn) get the same kudos for helping out with all
|
|
|
|
of the testing and fixing in the tree, and as much as I hate to talk nicely
|
|
|
|
about rob0 (/dev/rob0), he actually deserves some kind words for his work
|
|
|
|
on keeping our mail and dns working properly.
|
|
|
|
All of our users and maintainers deserve proper thanks for our existence, but
|
|
|
|
Binh Nguyen and Willy Sudiarto Raharjo really stepped up and helped out with
|
|
|
|
lots of testing and fixing and updating needed to get the 14.0 repo ready.
|
|
|
|
I'm sure I've left someone out, but please understand that my bad memory is
|
|
|
|
in no way a reflection on your contributions. Thanks to everyone for your
|
|
|
|
contributions, regardless of how small or large they may have been.
|
|
|
|
See the git log <http://slackbuilds.org/cgit/slackbuilds/log/?h=14.0> for
|
|
|
|
detail changes since 13.37. Now go forth and Slack!
