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. - - Here is a summary of the changes since 1.3.0: + Here is a summary of the changes since 2.3.6: NEW FUNCTIONALITY - - List new features (presumably why a checkpoint is being released) + - None DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY - - List anything that's been deprecated since the last release + - None CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY - - List modifications to existing features, where the previous behavior - wouldn't actually be considered a bug + - None FIXES - - List fixes of outright bugs + - None IMPROVEMENTS - - List improvements that wouldn't be visible to the user in the - documentation: performance improvements (describe the circumstances - under which they would be observed), or major code cleanups + - Switched several core classes to use "slots", to + reduce the overall memory consumption in large + projects (fixes #2180, #2178, #2198) + - Memoizer counting uses decorators now, instead of + the old metaclasses approach.
