blog post on the development plans
Hi all,
since we receive interest if we will bring a Silicon version we should
bring a block post.
I suggest to publish our way forward. And same strategy as with Windows.
win7 as a smaller language set, Win10 full release.
Mac intel smaller language set, Mac silicon full release.
what do you think?
All the best
Peter

Sure that discussion does not ask the question of whether or not 4.1.X is sufficient for users for 32 bit support.

That request is to continue to support Intel based Macs. I doubt that the AOO version matters to the user.

I don’t see a disagreement so much as we have not asked the question in a clear manner.
I’ll ask on dev@ later today.

Hi Dave,
It seems we do not have an agreement after all.

Here i would like to discuss the blog post, what our startegy is.
Because we get asked. Let us use the
Windows x86 and Windows x64 (see below) to get to an agreement
what we release.

see https://lists.apache.org/thread/qqmosfrxzj37sqp6rfggbmykvbodjmk9
The request is to support a wide range of our users. let us continue the
discussion on the OS Versions there.

We have an active user request for this. see:
https://lists.apache.org/thread/vygn3hzgstw2v6c96csoblytmvyrd289
I think this is a strong incentive to do this.

There are multiple volunteers who disagree.

Are we discussing 5.0.0 only?

Why would we publish a win7 5.0.0 at all?

Same regarding Mac intel. Why would we bother with it for 5.0.0?

Let’s have as few OS versions as we can!
