Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Status and outlook for RC1 staging repo

[Markus Knauer <mknauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

10 AM (Eastern) for the staging repository - if there is a small problem/error it will cause a delay, but I am confident that it can be done...

10am - 11.30am -> time frame for building the EPP repo
11.30am +++ -> build the final packages, package maintainer can test and sign off immediately when their package drops out of the build

Friday 1am -> copy the packages to the mirrors
Friday XX pm -> enable package download for all packages that received a "+1" until then

The consequence of this is (but that is no difference to the last milestones) that a "-1" vote of a package results in disabling it on Friday's release. If possible I would try to fix such a "-1" package, rebuild it and add it some time next week to the download packages, but that needs to be decided as the case arises.


Thanks and regards, Markus

Late again? A little.

There is a fairly final /releases/staging repository, but has a few problems:

1) I had to remove teneo, since it was failing in a way that would fail whole build .... and Martin Taal contacted me right before I went to bed :) saying he thinks he has it fixed and has started a rebuild.

2) Riena has a bad pack.gz file, so its set of bundles are incomplete. Christian Campo is actively looking into it .. but he just got up :)

3) And ... I just noticed from hudson log ... a new (late) contribution from MPC!?: bug 308687: [releng] include MPC contribution

So, I'm willing to check in morning, and promote one more ... if everything is perfectly successful. Otherwise, we'll have an RC1 with what we have right now and ... well, we'll see how it looks Thursday morning.

I'll set 10 AM (Eastern) as a hard cut-off ... we will be done by then, one way or the other. Oh ... and no one else please use this as an excuse to add some new build/fixes. If your building now, leave it alone and
don't risk breaking anything.

If anyone (Markus?) has any concerns with this slightly extended deadline, please just say so. I personally am fine with what we have.

And, team, let's please put the "simultaneous" back in simultaneous release, and everyone be on time next week. Or, at least, _you_ write the long note like this one to cross-project explaining why you are late.

Thanks all,
