Update: SFML 2.2 has been tagged in the repositoryIf you've watched the recent activity on GitHub, you might have noticed that the merging, branching and issue chopping has slowed down a bit. While this might seem like a halt on progress, it's essentially the opposite. Looking at the issue track, we can all agree that there are still some pretty annoying bugs, however in order to move on, the SFML Team has decided to stop adding features and bugfixes - except critical ones - and start finalizing for the long awaited release of SFML 2.2. So even while we're not actively making changes to the source code, there's still plenty of work going on.
We're not quite there yet, but besides
one little piece of code, which will probably get merged tomorrow, there is mostly organizational work left. We would really like to release a nice stable version of SFML 2.2 and since we can't test everything (yet), we'll resort to asking the community to help us test.
If you're still using SFML 2.1, why don't spend a few minutes building SFML from source and test whether you encounter any issues caused by the new freshly built SFML? We'd really appreciate any help finding critical bugs!
Here's a rough list, of what needs to be done before SFML 2.2 can be released:
-
iOS implementation for focus check and request methods #735
- Finalize the (new) Contribution Guidelines.
- Communicate the new Git workflow.
-
Review the written changelog.
-
Update the readme.txt.
- Expand and review tutorials.
- Test OS X 10.10 support.
- Create Windows, OS X and Linux SDK packages.
-
Update the version numbers
