-----------------------------------
Summary: Document release managers for non-deprecated branches
Key: HBASE-11730
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11730
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Task
Components: documentation
Reporter: Sean Busbey
New development goes against trunk and is backported as desired to existing
release branches. From what I have seen on the jira, it looks like each
branch's release manager makes the call on backporting a particular issue.
We should document both this norm and who the relevant release manager is for
each branch.
In the current docs, I'd suggest adding the RM list to the "Codelines" section
(18.11.1) and add a brief explanation of pinging the RM as a new section after
"submitting a patch again" (18.12.6).
Post HBASE-4593, the note about pinging a prior branch RM should just go as a
bullet in the "patch workflow."
