148 More than XXX bugs have been fixed during the development of 1.16.
150 This list does not include issues that have been cherry-picked into the
151 stable 1.16 branch and fixed there as well, all fixes that ended up in
152 the 1.16 branch are also included in 1.16.
154 This list also does not include issues that have been fixed without a
155 bug report in bugzilla, so the actual number of fixes is much higher.
160 After the 1.16.0 release there will be several 1.16.x bug-fix releases
161 which will contain bug fixes which have been deemed suitable for a
162 stable branch, but no new features or intrusive changes will be added to
163 a bug-fix release usually. The 1.16.x bug-fix releases will be made from
164 the git 1.16 branch, which is a stable branch.
168 1.16.0 is scheduled to be released around September 2018.
173 - The webrtcdsp element is currently not shipped as part of the
174 Windows binary packages due to a build system issue.
179 Our next major feature release will be 1.16, and 1.15 will be the
180 unstable development version leading up to the stable 1.16 release. The
181 development of 1.15/1.16 will happen in the git master branch.
183 The plan for the 1.16 development cycle is yet to be confirmed, but it
184 is expected that feature freeze will be around August 2017 followed by
185 several 1.15 pre-releases and the new 1.16 stable release in September.
187 1.16 will be backwards-compatible to the stable 1.14, 1.12, 1.10, 1.8,
188 1.6, 1.4, 1.2 and 1.0 release series.
