Subject: | Next R3.14.9 version: -pre2 or -RC1? |

Also, this release contains a cas fix that should allow the PV Gateway to pass alarm acknowledgements correctly, which was one of the main reasons we wanted to release R3.14.9 at this time. I would appreciate hearing from any other site that has built the PV Gateway with this version of Base and tested running ALH through it, to confirm our tests of this fix here at APS.
There have been significant numbers of commits done over the last few days, and I'm aware of at least one build issue on linux-arm that hasn't been completely resloved yet. I also have a number of gcc warning fixes in my sandbox that I haven't committed yet (I've been trying out the other -Wxxx options and cleaning up the real problems). As a result I don't think we're going to be ready to release -RC1 on Friday, so the release is most likely to be called R3.14.9-pre2 (comments on this are welcome). I will do a cvs update and tag on Friday morning, so please push any outstanding cvs commits on Thursday evening (or by 14:00 UTC Friday).
Advanced notice: All power to the APS office building is being turned off this coming Saturday (December 1st), between about 7:30am and Noon Chicago time. The APS website, email exploders and ssh+cvs access will be unavailable during that time. Those of you who rely on mercury for remote ssh access may have to wait until Monday morning for it to be turned back on; email me if you have any cvs+ssh problems next week, they'll probably be related to the power cycling.
