[GRASS5] Let's release GRASS 5 pre3

Hi developers,

before we go into merge troubles, I suggest to release
GRASS 5.0pre3 as last action on the current release_branch.

Any objections?

However, three fixes are listed (sorry, I don't want to pressure
anyone!):
- r.water.outlet (doesn't sometimes produce proper results,
   being worked on by Roger Miller)
- s.hull, s.delaunay, s.voronoy (Andrea Aime)
- v.in.shape (David Gray)
- anything else?

So maybe later this week we can tag the pre3.

My suggestionn only,

Markus

No, i agree to release pre3 ASAP.

I have the following changes pending (not checked in CVS):
- rework of some of the problems of binaryInstall.src, there are some
problems with wrong return values checking etc.
- update for Solaris packaging in pkg/*
- change to d.erase (has yet to be tested)
- bugfix for d.extend (does not work if nothing is displayed on monitor)
- change to d.text so that text is re-drawn if monitor is resized
- fix for d.title
- some text editing in README.cygwin, REQUIREMENTS.html and other files

Perhaps i find time to work on some other bugs from the bugtracker list
at the end of the week, but i can not promise.

Andrea, I ran s.voronoi with sites from contours generated by r.contour in
a zoomed in
region for Spearfish and I got some really messy results. I did not have
time to investigate
(s.voronoi runs fine with random data), so it may be just the data, but you
may want to try it
to see whether s.voronoi performs as desired.

I noticed that legend does not get redrawn either, it may be the similar
problem

There are many fixes needed for v.in.shape - I was planning on doing this over a period of time with some small changes once every few days, but, if there are particular problems they could take priority.

No.
It is better to have a tarball out,
even when it contains some bugs.

BTW: Did you make any progress on a build script for you two binary
platforms. This should not be hard to create.

... right - but I do not have time for that currently...
Script donations are welcome.

Sorry

Hi developers,

today is the suggested wednesday for tagging and release of GRASS 5.0pre3
source code.

this one seems to be o.k. in general.

- m.in.e00 fixes

... yes, see RT.

However, we don't get all things fixed now and the merge back to
the main branch in CVS is urgently needed to procees with 5.1
and the stable 5.0.

Therefore I'll tag 5.0pre3 later today if there are no objections.
