Hi, There was a discussion on IRC about it a little while ago about the release schedule, one of the conclusion was that soft-freeze was not needed anymore.
But some people thought that the freezing time would be too long, so here is an alternative schedule. August 31th -> soft freeze, no more features in master, features in master are restricted to features discussed before hand and that can justify an September 7th -> beta1 is tagged September 14th -> beta1 is released September 30th -> beta2 is tagged October 5th -> beta2 is released October 12th -> String freeze, any changes to a string in futurestable needs to be discussed with the translation teams (except for typo that are bug fix and you only need to ping the translation teams) It also means no new features can be added October 21th -> beta3 is tagged October 26th -> beta3 is released, master is branched into "futurestable", and master get open again for new features, and "futurestable" is the branch were bug fixes for 2.4 need to go November 18th -> RC1 is tagged, "futurestable" is closed, and merged in "stable" November 23th -> RC1 is released It is worthwhile to remember that while new features are allowed in the beta cycle, it should be the exception, not the norm. So what do you think ? Is it better with the feature exception, or do most people prefers no feature exception ? -- Cyrille Berger Skott _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
