Yes. We are having named releases and this one will be "keoe" (aka
"vega"). The plan is to do final testing and integration next week with
the goal of a release the following week. The release will just be /star
iso images (and a .dmg of the whole of a star build for OSX), along with
the JAC software that is not in Starlink CVS and a perl distribution. We
are aiming for 32bit linux, OSX and Solaris, and possibly a 64-bit linux
if I get time.
Not sure when next week I will tag (and branch off the tag) but I'm happy
for your starjava code to get tagged under your control (I'm assuming that
since Peter is away that you can tag the whole of starjava at your
convenience). Once tagged it would be helpful if patches derived from that
branch are also integrated into the main trunk, since I never intend to
merge "keoe" back to the trunk.
