Which commit should currently be considered "stable"?

Open GSI opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

The official uzbl package for Arch Linux is currently referencing commit 3a4c70ad114b763f50a02c72ee4332dd20af033d.

Isn't master also WebKit2 compatible by now? Should a certain commit in master be used as stable instead? Which one?

(When) would the next step in version number be feasible?

master is still just WebKit1. next is WebKit2. I don't know the status of WebKit2 complete support, but @keis was working on it.

With webkit1 being deprecated in all major distros it could be argued that next is in practice more stable at this point. There's still much to be fixed for webkit2 to be really usable, and I would love to get around to dig into that at some point, but alas real life is leaving me with less time to spend hacking at neat projects like uzbl.

@keis, is there any document/information which can give a brief status of next branch? Also it could be great if we have some features and bugs list which we need to fix or implement to consider next good enough to become mainline.

@vchimishuk Checking the next label on issues here on github should give a rough idea but is probably the best option around.

Specifically getting cookie/session sharing working again would be the big blocker
