Re: [iot-pmc] Review request for a new release of Cyclone DDS

Hi Ian and Wayne,

Thanks very much Ian for confirming that I can safely change the version to 0.5. Your sense that it was meant as a forerunner is entirely correct: not because I didn’t want the review to take place yet, but because the version number detail was urgent because of a relationship with the imminent release of ROS2 Eloquent on Friday. Now I feel confident I can bump the version number and tag it as a release candidate. 

With that problem out of the way, I would much appreciate a review.

In terms out code quality I don’t see a reason to postpone it. I know there are users, both via ROS2 and directly, but there are (fortunately) very view issues. The state of the collateral is pretty similar to what it was before, although there have been some real improvements in documentation for the configuration. The linked generated documentation will of course be updated.

Any comments or suggestions are most welcome!

Best regards,
Erik

I was taking Erik's question as a forerunner to making a definite release request.  Maybe I misunderstood that.

Greetings Eclipse IoT PMC,

Friendly reminder... the EMO needs a clear +1 from any PMC member to indicate approval to proceed with the release and the corresponding review materials.

Hi Erik,

I think that the choice of version numbers is substantially your choice, and we (I at least) are happy to go along with it. 

There are some conventions which it's nice to follow, such as graduating on a 1.0 release.  Not all projects have followed these conventions although I would recommend this particular one.

There are hard and fast rules that we should all follow such as only making breaking changes on a major version bump (after graduation or version numbers > 1.0).

Apart from this, it's very much up to you as you see appropriate for the project.  I agree with the reasoning that 0.1 sounds like Cyclone DDS is very immature and moving to 0.5 gives a better impression of its state.

Dear PMC members,

Cyclone DDS releases are far and few between — the first and so far only release was early in the year — but I really do want to do another release. I might even say, need to do one, if only for ROS2 versioning purposes.

There are some i’s to be dotted still, for example updating the version number in the sources and regenerating the documentation linked from the GitHub readme, and with a bit of luck and some help from elsewhere, a few t’s to be crossed, such as uploading documentation to readthedocs.io or so. There is a marked increase in contributions from other people, so there is a chance of such things happening, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

The reason I haven’t bumped the version number yet is to a large extent that I want to do a jump in version number. I have tried to explain why in the release documentation page. I would be most grateful if you could look at the release information page and let me know If you are willing to accept that jump: then I can least bump the number and tag a commit as a prerelease. That would help a lot with the integration in the ROS2 ecosystem.

Many thanks,

Erik Boasson on behalf of Eclipse Cyclone DDS
