Hi everyone,
The next pkgdb2 release (1.24) will be a pretty big releases, to give
you an idea this is its current changelog:
...snip good stuff...
Since these changes might be pretty big and impact multiple person,
I
would like to hear when people think it would be best to make the
release.
Note: I will not do it today, but basically I could from tomorrow :)
I'd say do it tomorrow. ;)
Well, is it already in stg and working there?
I'd say push to staging and make sure there's nothing obviously
broken, then go to prod.
Note2: As it will likely take a little time for people to get
adjusted to the new workflow (that needs to be documented & so on),
there will likely be a time for pkgdb admins and releng when they
will have to check both bugzilla and pkgdb.
Right. However, we should be able to roll this out and keep using the
old process for new packages and branches right? ie, maintainers don't
even need to know this is there unless we ask them to try it?
So, we should be able to put it in place and have a small group of
folks test things and fix issues, and only then announce to maintainers
to switch to the new process.
Note3: As I would not be surprised that we run into some bugs and
since freeze is not that far either, the earlier the better :)
I agree.
