I wanted to speculate when the next stable release of wxPython will be out. I made a little plot showing the major releases of wxPython. I took the dates from the “recent changes” page. The graph is attached. X axis is date, Y axis is wxPython version.
I guess I can speculate by this graph that wxPython 2.10 will be released around August 2011? Of course, this is pure speculation.
I would be happy of course to hear your opinions and forecasts about when the next stable release will be made.
How could you do all that and then not provide the R-squared value
for that surprisingly linear data? I mean your user name is cool-RR!

Hmmm...all you had to do to find out the next release date was to look
at the wxWidgets roadmap page and then add a month or three.
Accordingly, wxWidgets 2.9.2 will come in autumn 2011, so wxPython
2.9.2 won't come out until late autumn or early winter. I don't think
2.10 is even on the map right now.

Didn't think of that
Actually I'm not very technical in statistics. I now attached the
Mathematica notebook, if anyone wants to do any statistical analysis
One thing that your graph doesn't take into account is the overlap of the development of multiple branches of the code. For example, 2.9 has been in development since about the same time as the first 2.8 release.
That said, your graph is probably as good as any other forecasting tool. The wx project is really bad about making and keeping to schedules. Usually release schedules are made simply by deciding that it is time to do one and that the code is in good enough shape to be released, so we end up with messages in wx-dev like "let's plan on trying to do a X.Y.Z release by the end of the month" (or whenever).

There isn't going to be a 2.10. 2.9 will become 3.0 when it is ready to become the stable release.

Hmmm...all you had to do to find out the next release date was to look
at the wxWidgets roadmap page and then add a month or three.
Accordingly, wxWidgets 2.9.2 will come in autumn 2011, so wxPython
2.9.2 won't come out until late autumn or early winter. I don't think
2.10 is even on the map right now.

There isn't going to be a 2.10. 2.9 will become 3.0 when it is ready to
become the stable release.
Oh, I should also mention that I expect 2.9.2 long before next autumn. It could happen as soon as sometime in the next couple months.
Oops...I knew it was going to 3.0 and then when I saw this post about
2.10, I forgot all about that. Duh!

The release that interests me is the next stable one, since I don’t want to be using the development ones. So I see it’s 3.0. A few questions:
Since we’re switching major number, are we going to break backwards compatibility in some big way?
When would you forecast the 3.0 release will be made? (“Forecast” as in “when you think it will actually happen” and not “when you are planning for it to happen”. Of course, I’m treating this as pure speculation.)

Yes, I expect so, assuming the Project Phoenix has matured enough that it is the version of wxPython being released for 3.0. The extension modules should be able to be built for either 2.x or 3.x with a few tweaks. The wx.lib will also need changes done for Python 3.x compatibility but they are probably going to need some work for Phoenix anyway so maybe that can all be done at the same time.
