[Release Planning 3.4] Delaying 3.4.4 again?

[Karolin Seeger]

Hey folks,

Samba 3.4.4 is scheduled for January 7, 2010.

The following blockers currently exist:

-https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6883
 (Add Printer fails with 0x000006f7 on Windows 7)

-https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6888
 (REGRESSION: printing support for 64 bit windows clients broken)

-https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6837
 ("Too many open files" when trying to access large number of files)

As there are only two days left until the branch will be frozen, I guess
these blockers won't be fixed/changed in time. A lot of important fixes
have been added since Samba 3.4.3 and therefore, I would argue against
delaying another time in this particular case.

Excerpt from current release notes of the upcoming Samba 3.4.4 release:

-----8<------------------snip--------------8<--------------
   o Fix interdomain trust relationships with Win2008R2 (bug #6697).
   o Fix Winbind crashes when queried from nss (bug #6889).
   o Fix "UID range full" error in Winbind (bug #6901).
   o Fix multiple LDAP servers in "idmap backend" and "idmap alloc
     backend" (bug #6910).
----->8------------------snap-------------->8--------------

So I would prefer to ship anyway. Are there any objections?

Cheers,
Karolin
