<p dir="ltr">I can work with him to find the difference between his environment and mine and resolve that. The bindings build fine in Fedora 18 just two hours ago, so it seems to be an Ubuntu (I believe Peter is an Ubuntu user?) thing. I have not heard other failure reports but the Swig bindings are not regularly built by most people.</p>
<p dir="ltr">If we can have a regular release maintenance branch which really is limited to fixes only and is short release cycles, I would rather work this out there and make the fix part of 1.7.1.</p>

>> ...please just release 1.7.0 now. 15 months ago Troy promised it would be released the following month. Some things have happened that made it a bit difficult, but 15 MORE months beyond the already-too-long time is ridiculous. Please just release it as it is and then make regular bug-fix releases to address each of these outstanding bugs.<br>

>> Please, stop with the "one more bug" or "one more thing" or "next week/month, I promise". Just release it. Xiphos is unable to make a new release because it has been repeatedly promised that "very soon now" a new Sword would be released, so the application has committed to the current SVN of Sword. BibleTime has support for several of the existing Sword features in a development branch but cannot make a release with that support because of a commitment to only supporting released Sword versions.<br>

>> Troy, you've said one reason you procrastinate releases is because you don't like going through the release process. I've offered twice now - with no response - to manage a stable branch of the library and make regular bug-fix releases from that while main trunk development continues onwards. With git, I already maintain such functionality on the github mirror of CrossWire - doing it for a stable branch would not be more difficult. Maybe someone else would also be willing if you don't want me to do that.<br>
