Provide releases on GitHub
good idea
+1
Normally:
- release candidate → public, good for prod
- public beta → public, but not good for prod
- private beta → private, good for testers
- alpha → restricted for devs only
- pre-alpha → aka, proof of concept, development hasn't even really started
So, what's our current release status? Hum, a 5-years long pre-alpha, that's abandonware, you can't ever hope for a release.
Also wondering about this.
Hi, I have returned from beyond the grave to "maintain" pocketsphinx. There will be releases, the next will be 5.0.0 since that follows "5prealpha" (not sure where that number came from...).
Unfortunately I don't think we can recreate the imported SVN history to get proper tags for 0.7 and 0.8 even though that would be a good idea. I'll close this issue when there's an actual release. Thanks!
@dhdaines I see you've been hard at work improving the build system and documentation for the last few days. What are your plans: Are you planning to add any new features or improve existing ones?
Hi @DanielSWolf, not planning to add new features, in fact I've already removed some! PocketSphinx is now several decades removed from the state of the art for large-vocabulary continuous speech recognition, and from what I can tell people are largely using it for other things. The idea is mainly to stabilise and document it.
Thanks for the clarification!
There are a few pre-releases so far on GitHub. We're getting there!
I'll close this when there's an actual release.

Oops, the "release candidates" that I've done haven't exactly been this. But I promise, the latest one really is a release candidate. It's all just documentation from here on out.
5.0.0 is now released on GitHub and PyPI
