The ns-3.4 Release
This page summarizes the ongoing release planning for the Fourth stable release of ns-3.
ns-3-dev is scheduled to enter the open phase for ns-3.4 on December 17, 2009. Until then, checkins of new features are forbidden.
The Release Manager
The release manager has not yet been chosen for ns-3.4.
The ns-3.4 Release Schedule
ns-3 releases are based on date-driven schedules as opposed to feature-driven schedules. We decide on an approximate release date and then the release manager works backward to define windows during which time certain activites related to the release can happen. This was done for ns-3.3 and the important milestones for that release can be found here. We have only defined a rough release date for ns-3.4 as of this writing:
- December 17 -- ns-3.4 Open phase begins.
- March, 2009 -- ns-3.4 Release
Candidates for Merge into ns-3.4
As you can see in the Roadmap, we have identified several candidates for inclusion in ns-3.4. As time passes and details become more evident, more status regarding the progress of these new features will be added.
- Object Naming Feature and Integration with Attributes;
- Build System Refactoring;
- IPv4/Routing Refactoring + Basic IPv6 Support;
- Random Number Generator and RandomVariable Changes.
