request: beta code in its own branch #211

Open wharlox opened 2 years ago

wharlox commented 2 years ago

went code hunting and noticed the beta is not commited yet? I enjoy digging in code when possible

Looking forward to even attempting to help more than stating wants+bugs though ms-code is not my strong suit

Prior to this beta builds were just to test changes when someone had a problem/request; the available source was always the latest release build. Right now I'm effectively using the beta as the main release only because my dev build is stuck, so I can't make any proper releases without having to strip a lot of stuff out. The current beta is actually an old backup (it's months ahead of the release build but was about a month behind my dev build) that I was forced to release due to the recent problems. I have negative free time right now, so there won't be a proper release until probably the end of the year.

What about just dumping all on a separate branch and have other people help you clean it up?

If I had to, I could do a release build right now. Making the list of changes is what will take the most time. I was going to do that a few weeks ago, but was interrupted (a lot of problems this year). I'm currently busy with outdoor work that I'd prefer to get done before the weather changes, so I haven't been wanting to get into anything else.

I'll probably do a release in October simply for the semi-critical fixes for the problems caused by CoherentUI. I was kind of hoping ArenaNet would fix or revert it, but it's been over 2 months without a word.

Hurry back! hah I need your program! I can't get any option in management to work. I know not enough info. Will get you more soon.

Bumping this, since I think the CI/CD could do with some improvements, but having an up-to-date idea of where the primary author is is very useful!
