Postmortem and lessons learned for Linaro's release 2013.01 https://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles/1301/Release/Review
Highlights and Key Successes ============================ http://www.linaro.org/downloads/1301 http://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles/1301/Release#Release_Information For the first release of the year Linaro has some nice new technologies to augment the regular platforms that have been released. The Developer platform Team has enabled 64bit HipHop VM development in OpenEmbedded, continued to merge ARMv8 support into the OpenEmbedded platform and upstream, engaged initial support for the Arndale board and released Linux Linaro 3.8-rc4 2013.01. The first stable Juice builds have been created and integrated into Linaro's automated testing infrastructure LAVA. The builds allow early Android development to begin on upcoming ARMv8 Models. The builds have been tested against 40 manual and 60 automated tests that cover all aspects of the platform including core Android feature testing and platform use. The Linaro Enterprise Group (LEG) has released Linaro UEFI 2013.01. The highlights include fixes for native building of UEFI on ARM platforms and improvements to flashing images on Arndale board and enable native building for PandaBoard. The Power Management Group hosted a big.LITTLE sprint in Cambridge led by Amit Kucheria. A meeting of minds between ARM, Linaro and the community succeeded in achieving enhanced focus and a more defined roadmap for the big.LITTLE story. Topics included clearly defined benchmarking to determine the effectiveness of the platform, enhanced verification to augment the traditional kernel power/performance testing, and a well defined roadmap for big.LITTLE on Android. In related big.LITTLE MP development, version 14 of the big.LITTLE MP tree has been released. https://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles/1301/Release#Release_Information Blueprints ========= The number of high or essential priority blueprints that missed the cycle: Android 1 out of 7 Developer Platform 3 out of 4 Infrastructure 1 out of 3 Lava 3 out of 7 QA 1 out of 7 Total 9 out of 28 33% of high or essential priority blueprints scheduled for this cycle were not delivered.
