The Yocto Project team is moving to a new release planning process and I want to provide an overview as there will be some things I need from those of you making changes and adding things to Bugzilla.
Overview: We are moving to a “Pull” process for planning rather than a “Push” process. What this means is that we will start with an empty 2.6 release bucket and pull bugs and enhancements in that map to our top priorities rather than push things out of a giant bucket. We are hoping this will help us start 2.6 with a very clear idea as to what we will focus on and be much less overwhelming than pushing a giant snowball through each release. How does this effect you? If you are pushing bugs/enhancements to the next release or adding new bugs/enhancements for the next release you need to be aware of the following: -We have a M+ Future status that holds items that are important and need to be addressed soon. This bucket is pretty big. -We have moved all 2.6 features and bugs to a 2.99 release. This bucket is a temporary hold for the items that didn’t make it into 2.5 and are at the very top of our list for review to pull in. We don’t want them to get lost in the M+ Future bucket. Once 2.6 planning is complete, this 2.99 bucket will be empty and removed. -If you are adding new bugs and enhancements that you believe should be slotted for 2.6, please enter them as 2.99. -If you are pushing anything from 2.5 to 2.6, please enter it as 2.99. Please let me know if you have any questions about this.
