[Scummvm-devel] ScummVM 1.1.0 has been tagged

[Travis Howell]

Why did ScummVM 1.1.0 get tagged, when we still have regressions? bugs 
#2961787, #2976353 for example. It is still not clear how many of the 
Nippon Safe bugs are regressions either, due to that recent load/save issue.

The new tools still lack more thorough public testing, it seems we 
failed to ask for more testing in this case. Should we risk releasing 
new tools which aren't as well tested? or maybe wait longer for more 
public testing and handle separately this time?

We are not a commercial product, and don't have any reasons that a major 
release must be produced by a specific date. So I really don't see why 
major releases are pushed through, when they are good reasons 
(regressions in this case) for delays.

With ScummVM been used more often for games releases (i.e. on Good Old 
Games), I think it is even more important to avoid any regressions in 
stable games. If we keep letting known regressions in stable games 
through, than it seems more like ScummVM is going backwards. Which is 
only going to cause problems for users who specifically stick to major 
releases, to avoid regressions and more stability.
