OK, so looking at what we have, it seems we should be able to cut the
RC tomorrow. Of things we can merge before the RC, we have:
# 1079: if Stefan can finish it up quickly, we can go ahead with it.
Otherwise it will go to post-0.12.
# 1120: it doesn't have any dependencies. Paul, should we just go
ahead and merge now?
# 1129: currently conflicted, but a quick rebase should take care of it.
If all goes well, we'll merge the three above and can cut the RC right
away. The only blocker we have left tagged for 0.12 is our old
nemesis:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/481
Given that nobody seems to know how to fix it, we can't hold 0.12
indefinitely for it.
A medal awaits the brave hero who slays this particular dragon, but in
the meantime, we'll have to push 0.12 out without a fix if no solution
is found in the next few days.
Besides that, we only have three more issues that are of type 'bug'
and targeted for 0.12:
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues?labels=type-bug&sort=created&direction=desc&state=open&page=1&milestone=6
and I think we can live if it goes out without any of them fixed
(we'll move them to 0.13, obviously).
All in all, I think we're in pretty good shape! Thanks everyone for
working so hard in the past few days to get us here.
Cheers,
f
