[tdf-discuss] Are we sure not to release 3.4.4-RC3? This is the last release until February and 3.5.0 one!

Hi Everyone,

I think incoming 3.4.4 is (may be) the best release ever (than 3.3.x too).

But (there is a "but") because is the last release until February 2012 
as we could see here
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan

and more likely because we have decided no to release more 3.3 new 
versions, I think we could seriously evaluate to step another RC with 
some other cherry picked good fixed master issues (I mean those related 
to Quality and appearance).

I'm thinking about the one related to object alignment in Calc 
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37083), but also the 
annoying just caught related to Base opening and immediately closing 
table view (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42612), that 
seems to be a regression, and few other ones that I don't follow, but 
may be useful for all/many users...

3.4.4:
- carry us on 3.5.0 that is released before 3.4.5 one;
- take many 3.3.x users "a step forward" because 3.3.x end of life.

It's important that its quality is a step over the previous ones. We 
have already integrate in 3.4.4-RC2 about 30 fix, if we add some other 
ones it's not a bad thing in particular with respect to Quality.
We cannot lose the 3.3.x installed user base: they have to be happy (and 
not otherwise) to stay with us all together, haven't they?

What do we think about?

Have a nice week,

Carlo
