Hi list,
A few updates about the progresses towards a 0.12 release...
First, the good news. There's been a good deal of activity recently,
some of the changes in the custom query and ticket interface are really
nice, you might want to give them a try. Many small tickets have been
fixed, others have been moved to later releases, so the path toward
milestone completion becomes visible (we have only 31 tickets left [1]).
Also, Christopher has merged the advanced-i18n branch of Genshi into
trunk, which means that Trac trunk is now again easy to install
('easy_install'able, I suppose). This version is fairly solid for Trac
usage at least, and I would welcome a 0.6 release on that basis.
The multirepos branch has also seen some progresses, but is still not
yet ready to merge on trunk. I've started to work on the few remaining
bits (all "authz" related), so I'm pretty confident this will happen
this week.
The #7851 branch (with_transaction refactoring) is also progressing
well, and it looks like we will be able to integrate that after
multirepos merge. We can even still integrate #1106 (wiki rename) after
that.
Other stuff that will likely happen after the multirepos merge are a few
more db schema changes, notably #6466 (int => bigint for timestamps) and
storing 0-padded revision numbers in the repository cache (#6654).
Now for i18n, the situation is a bit mixed: we have a fairly good

Great, so I'll try that out

Ok, so we will have more time to adapt to 0.12, that is good news, a lot of innovation coming, requiring time
also from plugin developers...

Right, I can do that, I also found a kind of "bug" that is the following:
The milestone object assumes to be created, and used in two different requests, that might not always be the case:
- In the initialization the Milestone checks the "name" parameter and stores it - or not - as a copy in _old_name
- Once I insert a new Milestone, the insert method currently doesn't update the _old_name upon success...
- You can't update successfully a milestone after creation, unless you reload it again
