[Lash-dev] [ANN] lash-0.6.0 release candidate 2

[Nedko Arnaudov]

release candidate 2 has some important fixes:
 * Fix for #46 - on first save of newly appeared clients, their state
   was not correcttly recorded as being saved and thus was not being
   restored on project load afterwards.
 * Memory corruption fixes caused by bug in stdout/stderr handling
   code. Was happening when lash client outputs lot of data to stdout or
   stderr
 * Improved handling of repeating lines sent to stdout/stderr

I would like to ask LASH beleivers and other interested parties to test
the 0.6.0 release candidate. Juuso Alasuutari and me have been doing
some major changes to the lash code. We have done lot of work, we've
fixed several big implementation issues and we need stable point before
doing more changes (0.6.1 and 1.0 milestones).

In the tarball there is simple lash_control script. One can also control
LASH through patchage-0.4.2 and through lpatchage (availabe through
git).

User visible changes since 0.5.4:
 * Use jack D-Bus interface instead of libjack, enabled by default, can
   be disabled. Ticket #1
 * Allow controlling LASH through D-Bus. Ticket #2
 * Use D-Bus autolaunching instead of old mechanism. Ticket #3
 * Log file (~/.log/lash/lash.log) for LASH daemon. Ticket #4
 * Client stdout/stderr are logged to lash.log, when clients are
   launched by LASH daemon (project restore). Ticket #5
 * Improved handling of misbehaved clients. Ticket #45
 * Projects now can have comment and notes associated. Ticket #13
