Textpattern 4.8.4 release flight plan #1565
Comments

@Bloke @bloatware @philwareham – if you have patches to get into 4.8.4, please raise an issue for each in the appropriate repo(s) so we can track their progress. Thank you! |
|
I'll start on the .com article this weekend. |
|
Blog post drafted - have a peep at 432 if you're curious, I'll tweak as we get closer to launch. |
|
Latest translations are into the repo - so apart from tagging various theme/languages releases, my part is done and ready for release. |
|
Expecting PHP 8.0.0 GA to land tomorrow (Tuesday), and @Bloke is kindly attending to #1567 so I think that clears all preflight checks barring any late-breaking snags with tomorrow's GA. I will post here when the dev demo is updated, and we'll need a community call to action to test it out, but I think beyond that we're ready and we've done all we can do. Any objections for a Thursday / Friday release if we're smooth sailing with PHP 8.0 GA? |
Fine by me. If any further translations happen between now and then I'll squeeze them in. |
|
I've tagged the various themes with the 4.8.4 release number now. Will do the Textpacks/Pophelps just before we plan to release, to catch any last minute translations. Go when you are ready and happy to. |
|
I'm expecting PHP 8.0.0 to land any time, from the commits it looks like bug fixes from RC5 to GA, so should be smooth sailing. |
|
Can you all please fill out any history for changes made in 4.8.4, when you get a spare moment. It's a bit empty right now and there are definitely changes in 4.8.4 that are not listed yet. Cheers! |
|
I've done a few that I understand, and made the headline change support for PHP 8.0, so we can |
|
GO or NO GO on PHP 8 support seems sound, I have not yet found any issues. There aren't swathes of changes since 4.8.3, and psychologically we can benefit from a single @bloatware @Bloke @philwareham – please thumbs up or down at your convenience. Thank you. |
|
Go from me |
|
Commencing release process. Please stand by. |
|
I haven't yet nuked |
|
OK, I think it's safe to zap |
We are targeting Textpattern 4.8.4 for release in late November 2020, around the time of the GA release of PHP 8.0.0. At the time of writing, this is expected to be 26 November 2020.
Please update this post and subsequent replies with tasks etc as needed, assigning yourself or others where appropriate.
