RUN-PROGRAM has changed quite a bit, and whenever we move to a new release, I propose to bump to 3.2, to make it easier for people to detect these extensions.
A 3.2 release soon would make a lot of sense, but if you are going to do it, there are quite a few small changes that could benefit from being made just before such a release, such as:
- adding new flags to defsystem (if you do),
- completing and merging in the obsolete-function-warnings branch
- maybe removing some old backward compatibility functions
- being serious about make-operation
What about releasing what we have as 3.1.8 and then doing these things and releasing 3.2?
We could do that. To be honest, I wasn't thinking of releasing anything immediately: I was thinking of waiting for people to have some experience with the extensions of RUN-PROGRAM before doing so. I figured we could give them a little time to shake out.
I like your checklist -- at least the last three. Maybe I will make tickets for them on launchpad to help track them.
