- A new SCons checkpoint release, 3.1.3.alpha.yyyymmdd, is now available
+ A new SCons release, 4.0.0, is now available

- XXX The primary purpose of this release ... XXX
-
- A SCons "checkpoint release" is intended to provide early access to
- new features so they can be tested in the field before being released
- for adoption by other software distributions.
-
- Note that a checkpoint release is developed using the same test-driven
- development methodology as all SCons releases. Existing SCons
- functionality should all work as it does in previous releases (except
- for any changes identified in the release notes) and early adopters
- should be able to use a checkpoint release safely for production work
- with existing SConscript files. If not, it represents not only a bug
- in SCons but also a hole in the regression test suite, and we want to
- hear about it.
-
- New features may be more lightly tested than in past releases,
- especially as concerns their interaction with all of the other
- functionality in SCons. We are especially interested in hearing bug
- reports about new functionality.
-
- We do not recommend that downstream distributions (Debian, Fedora,
- etc.) package a checkpoint release, mainly to avoid confusing the
- "public" release numbering with the long checkpoint release names.
