We adopted a release schedule to streamline the process of working
|
||||
on, finishing, and issuing releases. The overall goal is to make a
|
||||
minor release every two months, which breaks down into one month of
|
||||
minor release every three or four months, which breaks down into two or three months of
|
||||
general development followed by one month of testing and polishing
|
||||
known as the release freeze. All the feature pull requests should be
|
||||
merged in the first month of one release period. And, during the frozen
|
||||
period, a corresponding release branch is open for fixes backported from
|
||||
master. Release candidates are made during this period for user testing to
|
||||
merged before feature freeze. And, during the frozen period, a corresponding
|
||||
release branch is open for fixes backported from main branch. Release candidates
|
||||
are made during this period for user testing to
|
||||
obtain a final version that is maintained in this branch. A release is
|
||||
maintained by issuing patch releases to only correct critical problems
|
||||
such as crashes or security issues.
|
||||
|
||||
Major release cycles are bimonthly. They always begin on the 25th and end on
|
||||
the 24th (i.e., the 25th of December to February 24th).

During a development cycle, we may also publish any necessary minor releases

for the previous version. For example, if the latest, published release is
