As I mentioned in the Linux Tools request, the deadline is
RC1. I think the planning council needs to make that more
visible as it seems not everyone knows that. I haven’t heard
when the Foundation has sent out the materials to the community
for review or when they plan to. If it takes us a week to
approve this, you may miss that window.
I get the sense there's quite a bit of confusion involved; at least
on my end. So please let me explain:
The Oomph project does not yet have a parallel maintenance
stream/branch. We only release from our master branch, but that
three times a year (I would say coinciding with simrel.0, .1, and
.2, but that already led to confusion :P ). So, directly after our
1.1.0 release at Mars.0 time I scheduled the 1.2.0 release for
Mars.1 time and announced participation in Neon with a target
release of 1.4.0 (assuming we'll have the 1.3.0 release with
Mars.2). At all milestone builds for both simrel versions (Mars and
Neon) we've contributed properly and not caused problems or
surprises.
So the only thing that may be late is our 1.2.0 release review, not
the 1.2.0 code that's already in simrel for months. This
3-releases-a-year process is also new to me as a project lead and it
may well be that I missed a clause in the simrel docs that requires
notice periods different from the EDP (which says "no shorter than a
week before the release review").
Not sure I could clarify all questions (don't hesitate to ask!), but
it strikes me the most important one is: Is there any show-stopper
in here or can I expect to ship Oomph 1.2 with Mars.1?
Would also be nice to have a community friendly New and
Noteworthy. I understand you’re a really small project but
listing the enhancement request titles doesn’t really give a
sense of the important things they need to know about the
release.
I've enhanced the release description with a N&N-like, shorter
bullet list of achievements.
And yes, you don’t need to wait for the IP Log to ask for our
approval. We generally don’t care about that. As a PMC, we just
want to make sure the content is well documented and properly
minor release (I.e. Has significant new features and has no API
breakage).
Anyway, the IP Log is now approved and Wayne told me that he makes
it public.
Cheers

Not sure what you are
asking us to do. a) If this is a minor update, as it
appears to be,
Yes, a minor release.
kind of late to be
"surprising" us with that when we are nearly done.
Yes, late. But too late?
Note that I wrongly assumed I cannot publish the review
before the IP Log is approved. The release itself has
been scheduled long ago.
b) worse, your release
review materials are basically non-existent. Though,
I'll admit, I've had trouble "finding" them before, so
maybe am just missing it in that web of web pages.
I think the most important piece of
information is the list of bug fixes and enhancements
that we provide.
c. The language
"coincide with Mars.1" usually means "it is at the
same time, but is not part of the Simultaneous Release
repository". Is that the case here? How's that to
work, since there is a version there, in Sim. Release
repo (right?) as well as some have it already
installed, so I suspect those people will be an
update, regardless of where it "lives" (right?)
I didn't pay much attention on the word
"coincide" when I copied the mail body from someone
else. Honestly, I don't think it's wrongly used. We'll
release our 1.2.0 version at the same time as the
release train releases its Mars.1 version. But if you
insist, please just ignore that word.
