As part of the Autumn release, if Triquetrum is to be included, we
need to close open Triquetrum CQs.
As part of this, we need to list what projects are planning to
participate in the release.
Shall I set up a wiki for the Autumn release where we can list which
projects are intending to release?
BTW - about the name, I prefer Autumn over Fall because Autumn is
more positive than Fall. So, unless someone objects, can we go with
Science Autumn 2016 Release?
All CQs for code/libraries that are included in the release bits
must be closed/approved by the IP Team prior to the release.
In the time leading up to the release, you can and should
distribute milestone builds that includes code/libraries that the
IP team has granted checkin approval for. These are not official
releases, and should be annotated as such (e.g. 0.7M2).
I recommend that the Science Working Group make a master list of
all the open CQs that are required for the coordinated autumn
release that we can present to the IP Team along with your last
question. This should be a relatively easy query if we have a list
of participating projects. Giving the IP Team a clear picture of
what needs to be accomplished is the best way of getting that
question answered.
By way of background for those readers who are not involved in the
Science Working Group's communications: several of the Science
projects have decided to do a coordinated release in the fall
(along the lines of what the Planning Council does with the
Simultaneous Release)
Before you can consider a Release Review, all of the
relevant CQs must be approved by the Eclipse Legal team. We
cannot schedule a Review before the Legal team has completed
their work. If you are waiting for CQs, please review where
your CQs are, and when they are scheduled to be reviewed, in
the IP
team work queue.
The above indicates to me that we need to have the CQs approved
before release review. Does approved mean closed?
If we need to have these CQs closed, is it feasible to have them
closed by the end of September so that we can schedule a release
review?
Thanks,
_Christopher
