When is Greenhopper 6.1.4 released?

[Svante Gustafsson Björkegren]

Hi,

We have run into an annoying GH bug (https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/GHS-7661) that is supposed to be fixed in GH 6.1.4.

Is there an indication when this will be released?

I would need to re-factor a great bunch of filters due to this bug and would be sooooo happy if the fix is coming soon!

Rgrds,

// Svante

Atlassian's official line is "when it's ready". You won't get a solid date out of them before they actually release it.

You can take a guess from the activity on Jira for it - if the version has a good swathe of issues flagged for it and they're nearly all resolved, you can work on "the next couple of weeks". If there's only a few issues, or it's all very red, then it's going to be a lot longer. You may want to skim their blogs and announcements too - you can often get a feel for an imminent release from them.

Finally, check their Jira and/or and OnDemand install - they relase there before it goes out to the world.

ok, makes sense!

I looked at the Greenhopper @ jira.atlassian.com and it says (v6.1.4-OD1)

This could then be an indication that it may be in the pipeline for the rest of the world :-) right?

Yup - I'd tell your users "probably two weeks", but I wouldn't be surprised if it's sooner.

The release said 106 issues dealt with, and 5 remaining. That's a good sign.

Great, thnx!

I keep my eyes on the marketplace then!

btw: is this broadcasted somewhere? I have seen that sometimes new releases are tweeted! Is that always the case or is there another way to know when it is released? Mailing list, maybe?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

You know, I'm sure they tweet it, but I can't for the life of me remember where, as I don't lurk on Twitter much. I pick up most stuff from the UPM flags, Google+ or users kicking me because I've missed something (you know, things like sleep, family and friends take up far too much of my time :-) )

I've waved a few people at http://www.atlassian.com/feeds before. That seems to have lots of followable stuff!
