v0.30.0 release planning

[madsmtm]

Winit is moving towards a trait-based API, users can submit feedback on their migration here.

To this end, we will use Winit v0.30 as a migration step, where both the trait-based and the current closure-based APIs will be available, such that we can solicit feedback from users, and hopefully make the transition less painful.

Check out the milestone for the current schedule.

[madsmtm]

I'd like to move forwards with the v0.30 release soon, looking at the milestone I'm unsure of what blockers there are except for #3477?

[madsmtm]

Might also want to block on #3590, it's somewhat related to the migration entries.

[daxpedda]

I would only block on #3477.

[daxpedda]

Lets not forget #2325.

[kchibisov]

Lets not forget #2325.

I know, I'll update it right at the end. Though, we can discuss the options I have set on it.

Is there going to be a 0.30 alpha/beta/RC release before final, so users can more easily (and sooner) experiment with the migration?

[madsmtm]

I don't think we were planning to do so

[torokati44]

I see, thank you!

[kchibisov]

Old APIs are deprecated and not yet removed, so you don't have rc, etc, because they are still there, you'll just get a warning for them.

Some were changed, but preserving semantics, so it's not really a breaking change either.

[madsmtm]

We decided today to wait for the ndk update to 0.9, at the very latest release Winit 0.30 at next week's meeting

[kchibisov]

Release done.
