Hi all,
We are in the fourth week of our post-pm merge stabilization cycle. It is
possible that in two weeks we are going into release mode. We are looking
for a release manager that is able to make sure the release happens.
The release manager should:
* Be the lead to make sure that all the tasks are assigned [see: 1]
* Follow-up on the execution of those tasks
* Be responsible for the release branch (either by reviewing the commits
on the master-branch himself, or by managing the review process).
* Make the final call on whether the code is ready for release
Just as a reminder: this time the goal is to have a short release cycle.
That means that in two weeks we are going to hold a vote on whether or not
the trunk is in shape for a release. After that, the proposal was to wrap
up the release in a matter of two weeks (instead of a matter of months).
The release manager should have enough time to spare in November/early
December. Ideally though, since there is the chance that the branch point
is delayed for six more weeks, the availability extends to January.
Kind regards,
N>
