[cdt-dev] CDT 5.0 Rampdown Policy

Hey guys, as discussed at the conf call, here is the ramp down policy for CDT 5.0
 
Release Candidates:
RC1 - Build Fri, May 16 - Release Tues, May 20
RC2 - Build Fri, May 23 - Release Mon, May 26
RC3 - Build Fri, May 30 - Release Mon, June 2
RC4 - Build Fri, June 6 - Release Mon, June 9
Final - Build Fri, June 13 - Release Mon June 16
 
Starting immediately (M7/RC0), no new features.
 
Starting Fri, May 30 (after M3 build), all commits must be accompanied with a notification to the cdt-dev list providing a link to the bug that was fixed. The CVS logs will be monitored to ensure compliance (i.e., I'll send a nasty mail if you forget to notify us of a change :)
 
The idea is to ensure we're only fixing bugs during the RC cycle. And as we get closer, it's important that we all understand what's changing and can object if too much is changing too late to ensure we stabalize by the end of the release.
 
I'll also continue to send countdown e-mails as we go to track open bugs. Please make sure you mark bugs you are thinking of fixing with the 5.0 target milestone.
 
I'll add this to the CDT wiki and the Ganymede process wiki.
 
Cheers,
Doug.
