Where is 3.0?

[jiapei100]

README.md says there is a version 3.0... But, where is such a release or branch ?

[ashmaroli]

There is no explicit v3.0 branch or release.
The current master is considered as v3.0 even though the gemspec says differently.

Any reason we can't create a 3.0 branch and release?

Three years since the last tagged release.

Will it ever be time?

[goseind]

I'd also really appreciate a proper release of the newest state! 👀

[dgw]

Someone please exclude this issue from @jekyllbot's staleness check. Until there is a new release, it will never be stale.

idk if the pinned label will prevent the staleness check, but I'm throwing my hat in the ring as someone who wants 3.0 😁

Is there a roadmap of the outstanding work for 3.0? The community might be a little more proactive in helping get it out the door if there were...

For follks that want the 3.0 version of minima, is there something preventing you from using https://github.com/benbalter/jekyll-remote-theme and specifying jekyll/minima as the remote theme? My time and attention is limited and a 3.0 release of minima is very low on my priority list at the moment.

[dgw]

Are there workarounds? Of course. There's that remote theme plugin, and there's also fetching the gem from GitHub (gem "minima", :github => 'jekyll/minima', :ref => 'commit-ish_here').

But going so long without a release brings into question the maintenance status of this theme, i.e. should we start making plans to migrate onto something else lest a future major Jekyll version update break something?

If 3.0 is "done" and just not tagged, we still must wonder whether maintenance will happen when there isn't even enough bandwidth among the maintenance team to tag a release. And if the work for 3.0 is unfinished, that goes doubly so.

Hi!

Some days ago I started a new Jekyl site, I used the jekyl new my_site command using ruby v3.2.2, and when I ran the bundle exec jekyll serve command on my_site root folder, I've got 6 deprecation warnings.

It took me some time to discover the minima 2.5 version was last updated 5 years ago. When I noticed that, I switched to branch master and AFAIS, everything looks good.

What do you need to do the 3.0 release?

I volunteer myself to help you with the 3.0 release. I already submitted a PR #797 to fix a deprecation warning I found on the minima master branch. I can get my hands dirty here, but I'll need some guidelines to do the work properly.

BTW, I am looking for a new job. I am offering myself as a volunteer to do this task because I want to gain experience on doing releases, it is something I've never done before on a popular open source project.

[KarlHeitmann]

I propose to release the version 3.0 as it is.

Just writing a changelog / tag with the breaking changes, fix the deprecation messages and release.

[getaaron]

It is pretty clear 3.0 will never be released unless someone wants to maintain a fork.

[CodeAsm]

Just release a 3.0 or something. this makes me sadness
