From an administrative stand point I like the March/September
schedule. Without going into a lot of detail it works around the
important to avoid events for public libraries in my consortium.
As for the numbering ... aside from the rational and reasonable
reasons for 2.3 versus 3.0, there is the psychological as well. Let's
just say a jump to 3.0 will generate some ... anxiety.
Quoting Bill Erickson <[email protected]>:
Hi all,
As we look toward planning the next release of Evergreen (after
2.2), there are a couple of simple, but important questions we need
to answer.
1. Is it time to jump to 3.0 or do we stay with 2.3?
I'm not aware of any significant architectural changes (e.g.
changing PG versions) on the horizon, which would suggest we stick
with 2.3. Perhaps it's too early to tell?
For reference: http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=versioning
2. Do we return to the originally proposed March/September release schedule?
My impression is there's a general consensus to do this. It would
lead to a shortened development cycle for next release, so I would
like to give everyone a chance to voice their concerns / alternate
suggestions and put this to a vote.
Once we have these questions answered, we can start outlining a schedule.
Thanks everyone.
