Hi Mike!
I was wondering if the development team has a regular schedule under which you are working? I was just curious at how often there will be updated releases for ChucK are being made.
(uh... what schedule?) The development and release schedule is "sort of" erratic. We put in good chunks of time, but they are subject to other deadlines and projects - January was a busy month - we had several big paper deadlines and the debut PLOrk concert, so chuck/audicle development only happened when support was required. Now that these deadlines are over, we are planning to enter a massive development and documentation period, so releases for chuck, audicle, and miniAudicle will happen much more frequently. Traditionally, there have been a minor chuck release every few weeks. It is usually not mandatory to upgrade (unless a bug fix or a feature you need is in the new release). 1.2.0.5 is planned for later this week. As always, announcements for new releases are sent to the [chuck] mailing list. Best, Ge!
