feature list of celestia v1.5...

Post #1by Stevy76 » 19.11.2005, 11:43

Hello developer community,
I found a suggested new features list (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Celestia:Suggested_New_Features) and just like to know if you disscuss elements of this list or if it is just an ordinary 'wish list'?
Are there ways to help developing these features in parts?

I think we might want to focus on getting to V 1.4 first. :wink:

...I read somewhere that v1.4pre7 is most likely also the final release!? (Don't ask where in the forum I read it.)
But I thought there are no new features to be included then... just bugfing...are they???
btw.: the v1.4pre7 is great already! :-)

I think you're misunderstanding the numbering system.

1.4.0pre7 is a pre-release version (hopefully the last one) of 1.4.0 - not of 1.5.0. Once 1.4.0 final is out, then it can move on to 1.4.1, 1.4.2, or onto 1.5preX (I think that's how the numbers work anyway) and then 1.5.0 final and so on.

Hej Malenfant,
thanks, but I know the numbering system in general... It's just that I thought after releasing the 1.4.0 all new features are "a project" for the version 1.5.x...
Anyway Im waiting for new features... I love the program! ;-)
