[eclipse-pmc] Adding N&N entries on time

["Noopur Gupta" <noopur_gupta@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi PMC,

 

The current deadline for adding N&N entries for a milestone release is Wednesday evening during the milestone week. However, as we do N&N testing and content editing on Tuesday, we miss the entries added later and need to revisit the content on Thursday which duplicates the effort. Also, if any issue is found based on the N&N entry on Thursday then it's too late for any changes in the milestone week.

 

To avoid these issues, I would like to propose that the N&N entry for any enhancement or noteworthy change should be added as and when the patch is merged before closing the bug report. For exceptions, the deadline should be moved from Wednesday evening to Monday evening which is also the last day of development for the milestone.

 

Thanks & Regards,
Noopur
