Hello, we are pretty late in the cycle for the next release without much development having been landed on the master branch. At this point I think we need to consider what our options are. If we had to release 6 months after 0.98.0, that would be the beginning of June, thus only 2 months and half left. Things are even worst if we consider the GNOME schedule, which have been trying to stay somewhat synced with. In fact 3.8 is being released these days.
So, here are the possibilities I see 1 Try to stick to the plan anyway, land the features that have been developed so far and try to stabilize them in time for June. 2 Focus on a polish only release for June and delay new features to the next cycle. 3 Skip the June release altogether, start a new 6 months cycle now. Work on another stable release in parallel. My feeling is that 1 is not very realistic. There is very little time and our maintainers and most active contributors are going to be busy polishing for upcoming OLPC release. We should consider that Fedora 19 will stay on 0.98. So even if we manage to release in time, the release won't be much distributed. I'm not too sure about 2 vs 3. Our maintainers haven't been getting much help with the polishing phase of the release cycle and it would be good to send a message to the community that it's an important part of the work, by dedicating a few months exclusively to it. Though I'm not too keen of blocking master for another few months, keeping code which has already been submitted long ago out of the tree. What does everyone think? -- Daniel Narvaez _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
