Complete the top most task first and then move on down the list. Skip the time estimates and all that time schedule things, that will lead to stress and overhead. Reprioritize the list on a firm interval (once per month? every two weeks? something like that) to catch newly surfaced bugs. > We, however, still need to have a timetable about when to make a > release when things are good enough. No. > Packagers no longer need to package git head code. And they should never do that either. It has lead to pain before and will probably do that again in the future because somebody doesn't understand better. I am happy to support minor releases just to get minor docs or l10n updates out there. Hs this really been a problem? > So, I think changing the release model helps. I think you are trying to solve the wrong problem in many was. People should focus on doing great software and clearing out the patch tracker, thinking about elaborate release processes will not gain more releases. Probably the opposite given the small team we have at hand. More code. More releases. Better code. Better releases. More contribution. - -- brother http://sis.bthstudent.se -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJPvgTJAAoJEJbdSEaj0jV7wQYH/3mk5Y+lZWhp26hAYsbRWFRQ +IX/mCxd+FOB8bzgynGnZAZFcmZTzugV7xu9hHOFcjuhgt7TiCvBUOKyPaO53gbN HDY+g7Bi7XvP5IPfwhjJBgCdcnRfcp+MbkgVqsECiLJwdled9bAljuPYFwMV/b2W zxin/V5td/ZjLKAzo0mPxANQ1sOh/+fYqLrZiHmAN3XzVxrPnyTU3ZRnIuW09AOI wfetPyqu13VJbSyX+rVvxKux1g9GIMUSVp6Uts12s56F9cDQT4ZeUy9LStIdupc2 AAp5+2eYkKWEDP0WbEri/Fdp/aGsOA0LVPfAw7OmP86qbyKGqcvmCXd+MQSgyy4= =h81f -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
