Upcoming vkd3d 2.0 release

[Henri Verbeet]

Hi all,

The planned release date for vkd3d 2.0 is Thursday May 21. That
means the public API will become frozen next week on April 23, and
features will be frozen two weeks before the release, on May 7.

This does not mean that development should slow down or stop, of course;
after making sure that we're in good shape to release, this would be the
ideal time to make sure that any larger features are ready to get merged
at the start of the next development cycle.

As usual, if you're an upstream vkd3d developer, please do the following:

  - Keep an eye on Bugzilla for any reported regressions.
  - Review any API changes since the previous release.
  - Verify that all vkd3d tests pass on your hardware/setup, and please
send fixes if they don't.
  - Review and improve the documentation.
  - Get any larger features ready to get merged at the start of the next
development cycle.

If you're a downstream user of vkd3d, please test your applications for
any regressions, and file bug reports if you find any.

The planned release date for vkd3d 2.1 is Monday August 24. A tentative
release schedule for future releases can be found on the vkd3d wiki[1].

Regards,

Henri
