Updating to the current org-mode in emacs trunk, and Org stable

Updating to the current org-mode in emacs trunk, and Org stable

[Oleh Krehel]

Hi all,

I normally use the git master version of org-mode, so I didn't notice
this for the longest time, but my several of my updates to org-mode
still aren't merged into stable versions.

For instance, ob-J.el was added over a year ago, and there have been
stable releases since then, but it wasn't in any of them. And it's not
in the emacs trunk either.

Same for ob-clojure.el: it still tries to rely on SLIME for
evaluation, although I added CIDER support over a year ago.

These are just the two files that I'm familiar with, there may be many
more.  What's the schedule of merging these changes to the stable
versions of Org and to Emacs trunk?

regards,
Oleh

My guess: After v8.3 is released.  I don't think anybody is working
preparing a release at the moment.

which would be a pity ...
Is there any way, how, many hands with small contributions might get this going ?
I mean: get real work done, instead of just nudging the usual activists ?

If you want to help make a release you should get in touch with Bastien
and ask how you can help, I guess.  I have absolutely no clue what a
release entails. . .  Other than creating a changelog...

I don't know what you are trying to say here.  Plenty of work is going on
IRL and in Org master.

Thanks,
Rasmus

AFAIK, Bastien (Cc'ed) is working on a 8.3 release, but also needs to
catch-up with all the traffic on the ML.

Yes, this is it.  I am slowly getting out of the black hole that
swallowed my life for the last six month, catching up with emails
on this mailing list.  I'll be able to release 8.3 next week.

Thanks for your patience,

Fåk.  Better get to work then :) 
Thanks!

Let us know if you have well-defied tasks that can be outsourced.

Just wanted to know, if I myself could do a bit more, than just nudging the usual activists.
(e.g. fixing some minor bugs or the like ...)

I know, that very much work is done on IRL and Org master, and I appreciate this work very much !
