during the testing period of 6.2.2-RC1 we got the following
issues fixed:
* DBF driver: fix semicolon problem (Glynn Clements)
* SQLite transactions to speed up execute (Antonio Galea)
* GUI startup: fixes browsing for EPSG file not updating path to it (Maris Nartiss)
* GUI startup: fixes browsing for new location path (Maris Nartiss)
* nviz compilation fix for MacOSX (Markus Neteler)
* r.in.gdalwarp: remove bashisms (Hamish Bowman)
* v.dissolve: fix for DBMI error if input map is specified with @mapset (Markus Neteler)
* v.lrs.* fixes backported + new documentation (Markus Neteler)
* Czech translation updated (Jachym Cepicky)
I would suggest to release 6.2.2 officially the next days if nobody
objects.

Hello Markus
As I noted before (http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grass-dev/2007-May/031699.html) Grass 6.2.2 seems to already be tagged (as grass_6_2_2) in CVS. I wonder how/when this happened, but it was definitely before 28th May as that was when I sent that e-mail. I still think it is a good idea to include the date of releases in the tag name, less confusion that way, e.g. release_20070702_grass_6_2_2 - what do you think? Or is there any other way of telling from CVS on what date the tag was created?

Hi,
While at sea I found a glitch with v.in.gpsbabel on the Mac which I'd like to
fix before release. (unportable call to "stat -c%s" for file size during XML
parsing; replaced with "wc -c")
I've a huge pile of data, unpacking, and gear repairs stacked up in the middle
of my lab to deal with, but I'll try to get the fix into CVS later today or
tomorrow.

Hello Markus
As I noted before
(http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grass-dev/2007-May/031699.html) Grass
6.2.2 seems to already be tagged (as grass_6_2_2) in CVS. I wonder
how/when this happened, but it was definitely before 28th May as that
was when I sent that e-mail.
Mea culpa! I want to shift this tag now to remove the mess. The "enter"
key was too close,
I hit it before starting thinking. Sorry.
I still think it is a good idea to include the date of releases in the
tag name, less confusion that way, e.g. release_20070702_grass_6_2_2 -
what do you think? Or is there any other way of telling from CVS on
what date the tag was created?
I don't know but I remember that someone (Glynn?) suggested to NOT
include the
date so that it wasn't done any more.

Well that's fine then if it has been discussed - I guess I just missed that when it happened but there were I'm sure good reasons for it then. FWIW my reasons for keeping with the old-style tags would be (a) less likely to create a tag by accident as you're putting a meaningful date into it and have to stop and think about that and (b) easy quick reference looking back through the web-based CVS browser as to the dates of the earlier releases.
But neither of those are particularly important. Good luck in shifting the tag!

I agree, it reduces confusion about a CVS tag being a conceptual alias
to a timestamp, as opposed to a separate working CVS branch line.
"grass_x_y_z" by itself is easily confused with a release branch line.
"release_YYYYMMDD_grass_x_y_z" (or "YYYYMMDD_grass_x_y_z", or some other
combination) sorts well.
nb. "release" and "grass" may be redundant noise in the tag name

I don't have any recollection of that.
Ok.
Since everybody is happy, we'll re-introduce the date into the tag.

during the testing period of 6.2.2-RC1 we got the following
issues fixed:
...
* Czech translation updated (Jachym Cepicky)
What about the other languages? Will they be included in the new release
and packages?
Carlos
Carlos,
would be great to merge back. But I tried once and actually *lost*
many messages. So, after a try one must check if this doesn't
reduce the translations in 6.2.x.
I can send you a script "po_merge.sh" which does it for all 3 files
automatically The script will ask you for the country code and then
it uses "msgmerge". The script is just a few lines.

I already had the script. I've done a test with es.po files and this is the result:
libs: same total and more fuzzy, so discarded.
mods and tcl: total amount of messages raises from 3910 and 871 to 4775 and 1148 respectively. Are all these new messages useful in 6.2.2 or I shall look only to the variation in fuzzy and untranslated? Shall I make pot & make update-po after running the script?
As you can see, many doubts.

I think that only "good" messages count (so, translated, non-fuzzy) and the
rest isn't important. If you observe a growing number of correctly
translated messages,
then I suggest to submit to 6.2.cvs.

release it mostly unchanged as 6.2.2 final in the next 2 weeks.

I think it is late in the game to start thinking about backporting
translations; iff there is a chance of regressions (?).

vs wholesale replacement of the .po files based on some a>b test? I
worry a bit if the entire file is replaced based on a a>b basis)

Tag, but please do NOT release 6.2.2 until I get a reply on the
directory permission/security issue I sent to the list over the weekend.
This is a show-stopper until explained or fixed, IMHO. I'm sure you'll
all agree when user X does 'rm -rf *' on your working dir.

The v.in.gns patch needs to be applied I think.
And my todays v.db.addtable bugfix needs a test

The script only runs msgmerge in a convenient way, so it is up to gettext.
AFAICT, we're ready to go.
Yes, almost.

Last Friday I applied Markus script to all languages po files and sent to cvs (releasebranch_6_2 grass6) all those with increased number of translated messages, so it's supposed current translations are backported. As it's the first time I work with this branch, could anyone check I sent them to the right place?
