[Crash-utility] [ANNOUNCE] crash with GDB 10.2 and release plan

Hi, We have worked on updating the GDB contained by the crash utility to version 10.2. We are going to merge the patch series [1] next week. [1] https://github.com/lian-bo/crash-gdb10.2-devel-temp And, here is the plan of the next releases: 1. create "crash-7-branch" to maintain the current gdb-7.6 crash for more several months. 2. merge the gdb-10.2 patch series into the master branch. 3. release crash-8.0.0 with gdb-10.2 and crash-7.3.1 with gdb-7.6 in this November or December. 4. release crash-7.3.2 with gdb-7.6 next year as its end of life. Nov or Dec May? (every 6 months) 8.0.0 8.0.1 master -------+--gdb10.2--*--------------*------> | crash-7-branch `-----------*--------------| (end of life) 7.3.1 7.3.2 It would be helpful if you would test it and report/fix bugs. We would like to thank Alexey Makhalov, who has done this excellent work, Tao Liu also has helped us test and fix bugs a lot, Youling Tang has tested on MIPS architecture, and all developers who have tested and reported bugs. Thanks, Kazu
