Karolin,
As you would have seen, I've proposed a date for RC1. I'm not sure what
your schedule is like, so I'm wondering if I can handle this first RC
release, so we can get RC1 made without undue pressure on yourself?
What I would suggest is:
- On the agreed date, I'll autobuild the WHATSNEW and VERSION change to
RC1, and make the release tag in the normal way, just as I have for the
betas.
- I'll upload the tarballs and branches etc as normal.
- Then I'll hand over the process to you, to work with submitted bugs,
and ensure you have both a release script that works and an
understanding of how to run it.
- You would make RC2 (which we will almost certainly need) and of
course the final release.
This way, I can focus on getting the new release scripts right, without
also needing to coordinate it with you.
Finally, I know the docs build is a challenge (and a key part of the
release process from what I see). Do you have any particular insights
into what it needs? (Otherwise, I'll work it out myself).
Please let me know what do you think.
Thanks,
Andrew Bartlett
