Well the biggest blocker for cutting releases is getting your binding votes...
My policy is cut releases until the PMC starts complaining that you are cutting too many releases... ;-) I haven't seen any of us complain about releases being too frequent *ever*... If you think it is ready for a release now, then as a committer you only have to stand up and say I am cutting a release... Good manners is to give 24-72hr notice that you will be cutting a release... but for a single plugin with nobody else having committed anything in the past 72hr and no sign of activity other than your own in JIRA, a quick ping on IRC and the mailing list with a 1-4h wait is probably fine... after all it's only a plugin and the release builds of those are fast... If you were cutting a release of core or a shared component, then I would think a 72h heads up to ensure that nobody else is working on patching something would be strongly encouraged... OTOH if you have an issue you see as critical... This should be self governing... if you cut too often or with too little improvement... attracting PMC binding votes will become harder over time... But as I already said... we are not at the stage of even 1 release vote per week... so you shouldn't have issues getting 3 PMC members to at least take a look at a plugin release candidate for a vote -Stephen On 24 January 2014 09:22, Karl Heinz Marbaise <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > i just want to know on what basis releases will be created... > > Currently i would suggest to create a Release 1.3.2 of the > maven-enforcer-plugin... > > In Jira the list > http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa? > projectId=11530&version=19935 > > for 1.3.2 contains a number of bug fixes... > > Are there any objections to get a release 1.3.2 out of the door... > > I would like to fix one or two more issues...but i want to know how the > mood is about creating a new release of Maven-Enforcer-Plugin.... > > Kind Regards > Karl Heinz Marbaise > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > >
