Hello,
I think it is time to start thinking about the next release (8.1),
as it has been 5.5 months since we release 8.0, and 7 months
since we created the 8.0.x branch!
I've created the following wiki page for keeping track of this release
cycle:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_8.1_Release
Looking at the gdb/NEWS file, it shows a fair number of enhancements.
Also, outside of one GDB PR that was marked for 8.1 but is no longer
critical IMO, we have no PR active targetting 8.1.
Are there any changes that would be worth waiting for before we branch
8.1? If not, I plan on creating the branch next Monday (Nov 27th).
Thank you,
