I'm fine with the general plan but I do want to see a longer notice<br>
period for toolchain changes on trunk. 1-2 months is too short.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>The overwhelming majority of contributors and users of trunk seem to be fine with this, so while I'm interested in anything we can do to make it easier for you, unless we see significantly more concerns about this plan, I think we should move forward.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Fundamentally, we aren't going to be able to make everyone happy. Some people will be seriously inconvenienced by this, but thus far the benefit seems to significantly outweigh the cost.</div><div>
<br></div><div>That said, while I'm about to commit the change to the release notes and send a summary email to the dev lists, we should continue discussing this. Nothing is going to be set in stone until the 3.4 release goes out, and maybe not even then. Especially if you or others want to discuss this with me in person (or others in person) at the dev meeting, I'm writing this email from the hacking session. =] Happy to chat.</div>
