[cdt-dev] End Game Update

[Doug Schaefer <DSchaefer@xxxxxxx>]

After considering feedback from the conference call and looking at my own schedule, I’d like to propose the following changes to the 3.1 end game. I have to admit that picking the end of May for RC1 and making it the provisional last RC was somewhat arbitrary. I think the number of contributors to 3.1 is small enough that we can manage the end a bit tighter. As such, here’s another proposal.

 

RC0 – May 1 (done)

RC1 – May 15

RC2 – May 29

RC3 – June 12 (GA candidate)

RC4 – June 26 (only if necessary, emergency fixes only)

 

This will give us more formal bi-weekly releases to the community for testing. It also pushes the GA candidate out to June 12 and still gives us two weeks to ensure there are no more fixes needed.

 

Please comment. Does this push the envelope too far? Is this a more realistic schedule?
