Since our release process has become easier of late, I would like to try to do a minor release (0.3.1) of the aeolus packages at the end of the current sprint (Tuesday, 23 August).
For that to work, it would be ideal to have all patches tested and pushed by Friday, 19 August. That's the RFC part of this message: do we think it would be possible to make that deadline?
Ideally, in order to do releases at the end of each sprint, we should have a few days built in for packaging and testing. How do you see our chances for doing that this sprint?
I think wrapping up a couple of days ahead of time, to permit a greater focus on testing and to allow time to for packaging, is an excellent idea, if not something we're already doing. It does, however, have the effect of basically shrinking our sprints by a day or two.
However, speaking only for myself, I'm not terribly optimistic that we're going to have everything in the present sprint done, or even be most of the way there, in the next couple of days. (But I'd love to find out I was wrong!)
