[plt-dev] Pre-Release Checklist for v5.0, second call
Checklist items for the v5.0 release
(using the v4.90.0.1 release candidate build)
Note: a new build is not ready, with all commits that needed to be
merged.
Search for your name to find relevant items, reply when you finish an
item (please indicate which item/s is/are done). Also, if you have any
commits that should have been picked, make sure that the changes are in.
Important: new builds are created without announcement, usually whenever
I pick a few commits. If you need to commit changes, please make sure
you tell me to pick it into the release branch.
--> Release candidates are at
--> http://pre.plt-scheme.org/release/installers
Please use these installers (or source bundles) -- don't test from
your own git clone (don't test v5.0.0.1 by mistake!). To get
the tests directory in such a directory, you can do this:
cd ...racket-root...
git archive --remote=git://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git release \
-- collects/tests | tar tf -
