Development

This is an evolving list of things planned to be done before the first release candidate of Ardour 3.0

Bug fixes

Obviously there are also many bug reports in Mantis that it would be good to fix before 3.0. You can read the list of bugs targetted to be solved for beta2 and for 3.0.

Sometime in the next 12-36 hours, its very likely that Ardour will see the 10,000th commit to the SVN repository. That's 10 thousand changes to the source code and build systems that make up Ardour2, Ardour3 and Mixbus. I'm not sure how to celebrate this, so if you have any ideas, post them here.

Sticklers for detail will want to know that there were 1352 commits to the CVS repository on sourceforge that preceded ardour.org's SVN repository. So strictly speaking the upcoming milestone has already been passed. But don't spoil our fun!

• gcc/g++ 3.x or above but preferably 4.3 or above
