We are getting close to the Indigo release, RC1 is coming out
today. I would like to start having the third party catalogs
sign-off on each RC release. Right now, we have an Obeo and Yoxos
third party catalog and I believe representatives from each are
already on this list.
What I would like to propose is the following process:
1. Once the EPP packages have been created and available for
testing, each catalog provider downloads at least one package for
testing.
2. The EPP package maintainers have typically 24 hrs to test their
packages before release. Therefore, the third party catalog
providers should be able to do testing within this period.
3. Once testing is complete, third party catalogs put a +1 on the
mpc-dev mailing list.
4. If no +1 is received, the catalog will be removed from the list
of catalogs. As a reminder, the list is controlled by the
Foundation, so removing it will not effect the packaged.
Does this make sense to everyone? It would be great to have +1 for
RC1 but I realize this is short notice so we will continue to
include all catalogs. For RC2 we will start to follow this sign-off
process or some for of it.
