New release? #672

Closed jmigual closed 1 year ago

jmigual commented 1 year ago

The last time that there was a release of this project was in the 29th of October, 2018. Does this mean that this project follows an "abseil live at head" phylosophy where master is always the last release?

If so, it would be nice to add a note in the README. If not, when is the next release going to be ready? Some projects are waiting for a new release (see https://github.com/fredo-dedup/JSONSchema.jl/issues/37)

The last release was in late 2022, not 2018 but yes the vast majority of the suite's users simply follow HEAD, and that's certainly the expected way to use it (via a subtree or submodule).

A PR is welcome for the README if you care to help!

I've published yet another one (mostly since I see somehow the previous one was somehow hidden, not sure why/how or if I just didn't hit the "publish" button)

But essentially the only reason we publish releases is to generate DOIs periodically, otherwise there's no reason not to use the main branch directly. Documenting how to automatically update such a setup (e.g. via dependabot) is #549 and indeed contributions very welcome there to add that to the README.

Otherwise going to close this I think, but feel free to let us know if there's something else you had in mind.

(Oh I see, it got unpublished because the tag was edited after the release was created, so now that's properly re-published publicly)

Ah cool thank you!
