I think we need to discuss and agree on the release cadence. There are two common types of releases: one is a regular release, such as a quarterly release; and the other is when certain features are available.
Given that the people in our current community are not necessarily able to guarantee the timely delivery of functionality. Because Doris is still in a rapid development process, feature improvements and bug fixes are still frequent, and if the release cycle drags on too long, it will affect the user's use. That's why I recommend a regular release. I propose a draft of our release process. 1. We publish a regular version in January, April, July and October of each year. 2. Cut the release branch one month before the release, and only bug fix will be merged the release branch. 3. Release a RC version every week or two week to help users to test new version Doris. 4. Start formal release process after 1 month. Any discussion on this approach is welcome.
