Hi,
With the impending release in the next day or so I would just like to
clarify what the current plan is.
1) Are we planning on having packages ready to go before the official
announcement?
It would be quite unfair for us, translators, as we have been promised
that we have time until tomorrow morning. It wouldn't be very motivating
for future.
Personally I don't think it looks good to have nothing ready for
download as soon as the email goes out because word spreads quick,
people hit our site, find nothing, get annoyed, then we tell them "ohh
but you have to wait until we make packages". A release to us is
tagged hash, to users it means packages ready to go.
2) Is the website going to be updated before/just after the
announcement to point to the packages?
3) Are we holding the feature freeze for a month/two weeks after
release in case something comes up that is a real hurt point to hold
off on?
If 2.4 "release" on the 27 is going to be just a email to call for
packages, could it be just labeled as such, don't use the words
"Release", or "QGIS 2.4 is out" because it will go everywhere raising
the issues in 1).
I guess that is all, if the questions could be clarified that would be
great.
Regards,
Nathan
