Yes, a few things that probably need rewriting, given some infra and build changes. I did try and keep mostly up to date during previous releases, but think it's useful for me and the new RM to talk through. Eric, are you definitely RM'ing this one? I'm tied up with client work this week, but can look at this one day early next week - let me know a good time. > It seems that travis is not ok may not be good to create branch release113 at > the time. I would still announce the freeze ASAP, with a [NOTICE] email - started adding [NOTICE] after a few people said there was too much traffic on dev@ and they hadn't seen it! Tag with milestone what definitely needs pulling in, and put the next (see below) milestone on others. And yes, probably best to branch when you're about ready for first beta, and when Travis is mostly back working. Get used to retriggering Travis, it's a flaky beast! ;-) Last two releases I aimed to have beta builds every Wednesday, although for various reasons didn't always manage that, more with build changes in 11.2. If new RM / we want to continue that or similar, we should perhaps document it? Regular weekly betas are good for everyone anyway IMO. > At the end, If PR not reviewed it will be for 12.0 Or 12.1 for some?! We might want to make both milestones available now. Introducing radical changes in an LTS may not be the best approach. Speaking of LTS, now might also be the time to get the NetCAT team reviewing test specs leading up to 12.0 too? At 11.3 freeze, major features for 12.0 should be mostly there, and if we're to schedule, freeze for 12.0 is only two months away now. :-) Best wishes, Neil --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
