nudles opened a new issue #784:
URL: https://github.com/apache/singa/issues/784
I propose to release a minor version to reflect the changes since v3.0,
including
Please test the following items and check the documentation if they are done.
- [ ] new onnx models and operators @joddiy
- [ ] distributed training @chrishkchris
- [ ] computational graph to support RNN @chrishkchris
- [ ] website update @nudles
- [ ] pypi package generation @nudles
- [ ] github workflow for code quality and coverage management @moazreyad
- [ ] tensor APIs @dcslin
- [ ] new autograd operators @joddiy
- [ ] anything else?
Here is the checklist and
[steps](http://www.apache.org/dev/release-publishing.html)
- [ ] Select a release manager. The release manager (RM) is the coordinator
for the release process. It is the RM's signature (.asc) that is uploaded
together with the release. The RM generates KEY (RSA 4096-bit) and uploads it
to a public key server. The RM needs to get his key endorsed (signed) by other
Apache user, to be connected to the web of trust. He should first ask the
mentor to help signing his key. [How to generate the
key](http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html)?
- [ ] Check license.
[FAQ](https://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#faq-docs); [SINGA
Issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/SINGA/issues/SINGA-447)
- [ ] the codebase does not include third-party code which is not
compatible to APL;
- [ ] The dependencies are compatible with APL. GNU-like licenses are NOT
compatible;
- [ ] All source files written by us MUST include the Apache license
header: http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html. There's a script in there
which helps propagating the header to all files.
- [ ] Update the LICENSE file. If we include any third party code in the
release package which is not APL, must state it at the end of the
[LICENSE](https://github.com/apache/singa/blob/master/LICENSE#L448) file and
include the license boilerplate in the original file.
- [ ] Bump the version. Check code and documentation
- [ ] The build process is error-free.
- [ ] Unit tests are included (as much as possible)
- [ ] Conda packages run without errors.
- [ ] The online documentation on the Apache website is up to date.
- [ ] Prepare the RELEASE_NOTES file. Include the following items,
Introduction, Features, Bugs (link to JIRA or Github PR), Changes, Dependency
list, Incompatibility issues. Follow this
[example](http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-digester/commons-digester-3.0/RELEASE-NOTES.txt).
- [ ] Prepare DISCLAIMER file. Modify from the
[template](http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html#disclaimers)
- [ ] Package the release candidate. The release should be packaged into :
apache-singa-VERSION.tar.gz. The release should not include any binary files
including git files. Upload the release to for
[stage](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/VERSION/). The tar file,
signature, KEY and SHA256 checksum file should be included. MD5 is no longer
used. Policy is
[here](http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#sigs-and-sums)
* apache-singa-VERSION.tar.gz
* KEY
* XX.acs
* .SHA256

- [ ] Upload the package for
[distribution](http://www.apache.org/dev/release-publishing.html#distribution)
to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/VERSION/.
- [ ] Update the Download page of SINGA website. The tar.gz file MUST be
downloaded from mirror, using closer.cgi script; other artifacts MUST be
downloaded from main Apache site. More details
[here](http://www.apache.org/dev/release-download-pages.html). Some feedback we
got during the previous releases: "Download pages must only link to formal
releases, so must not include links to GitHub.", "Links to KEYS, sigs and
hashes must not use dist.apache.org; instead use
https://www.apache.org/dist/singa/...;";, "Also you only need one KEYS link, and
there should be a description of how to use KEYS + sig or hash to verify the
downloads."
- [ ] Remove the RC tag and compile the conda packages.
- [ ] Publish the release information.
