---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Antonin - OpenJPEG <i...@openjpeg.org> Date: Tue, Jul 5, 2016 at 6:11 PM Subject: [OpenJPEG] OpenJPEG 2.1.1 released today To: "openj...@googlegroups.com" <openj...@googlegroups.com> Hi folks, Well, miracles happen, OpenJPEG 2.1.1 is released today: https://github.com/uclouvain/openjpeg/releases/tag/v2.1.1 No fancy additional features, no API/ABI break compared to OpenJPEG 2.1 … Mostly a release with the *huge* amount of critical bug fixes brought to the library since 2 years. A release that will therefore mostly interest linux distributions package maintainers. See full change log here: https://github.com/uclouvain/openjpeg/blob/openjpeg-2.1/CHANGELOG.md The real good news however is the following: release process has been drastically automated, thanks to the powerful tools from github, travis and appveyor. Making a release is now (almost) as easy as tagging the right branch in the github repo: it automatically creates the releases and upload the binaries. So OpenJPEG will eventually have a release cycle that’s worth its name: every 3 months at max, I’ll tag the repo to trigger a new release. And, last but not least, among the bunch of tests that are automatically done for each commit, the results of the API/ABI compliance check is now directly uploaded on the OpenJPEG website: http://www.openjpeg.org/abi-check/timeline/openjpeg/, so that we can follow the compliance from one commit to another. I hope you will enjoy this new release and the above-mentioned improvements. I take this opportunity to thank all those having contributed to improve the library until now. Special thanks to Matthieu Darbois for all the time spent on bug fixes, PR merging, and continuous integration improvement. Cheers, Antonin
