Sunbird 0.3
The internal code that sunbird uses has been rewritten to allow for greater flexibility and speed. In order to get an useful release, the new backend code needs to be tested. A lot.
Besides this, the lightning guys have been doing great work on the UI front. Sunbird doesn't include this yet, because it would delay a release with the new backend code.
To allow for this split testing, the following roadmap can be used:
| Sunbird0.3a1 | Fix regressions from the api rewrite, in a way that sunbird gets usable again. Not all bugs need to be fixed in the cleanest way. Still use old views and UI. Meant to get testing of the providers, and to be able to close old bugs that are fixed by the new ics provider or the new libical. Released on Nov. 4, 2005 |
|---|---|
| Sunbird0.3a2 | Switch to new views etc. Sync the UI as much as possible with lightning. Meant to test the new UI. |
| Sunbird0.3b | Bugfixes. |
| Sunbird0.3 | Final release. Might come from the gecko1.8 branch, if that is still current by the time of this release. Maybe a newer branch should be chosen. |
Note on sunbird 0.3a1: This release has old views and stuff. Those views are fixed to a point where the events show up, but there might be glitches in the display. This release is not meant to test the views, but to test the calendar backend code. Please don't file bugs on misaligned event boxes, wrong colors or whatever looks wrong. Please do file bugs on events not showing up, events showing up with wrong times, crashes, hangs, errors etc.
Please don't edit this page, unless you are a member of the calendar team.
