Re: [xwiki-dev] Status for the 1.0 Beta 3 release

Hi developers, Our planning suggests that we release beta 3 tomorrow. It seems everyone was busy and not much work has been done for beta 3. Here's what we have done so far: http://tinyurl.com/yutdw7 Thus we have 28 issues fixed in Beta 3. There are 61 remaining and planned in Beta 3, 28 in Beta 4 and 9 in RC1. Total = 97 before 1.0 Seen our manpower I think we can assume we can do 25 issues per 2 weeks releases (Marta is not going to be available much in Feb 2007 as she'll be working on other stuff). 97 / 25 == 4 releases. We have 2 currently planned (Beta 4 and RC1). Thus we have 2 questions to answer: 1) Do we release Beta 3 today? 2) How do we fix all issues for 1.0 final? Do we release Beta 3 today ----------------------------------- My personal preference is to continue doing bi-weekly releases as: 1) It trains us to do releases and improves our release process 2) It gives a rythm which is good for us and for our users. I believe this is extremely important 3) It allows us to iron out migration issues 4) It allows our users to report issues as soon as they happen rather than reporting them at the end when we're close to releasing 1.0 The possible downsides: 1) Too many releases for our users. I don't think this is valid as we have release notes and our users do not have to upgrade. They can decide by looking at the release notes. Thus my recommendation is to prepare Beta 3 release today and do the release tomorrow. Let me know if this is fine with everyone. If this is fine I'll create a branch for Beta 3 in a few hours. How do we fix all issues for 1.0 final --------------------------------------------- Looking at what we fixed in Beta 1, 2 and 3, I still believe we should focus more on fixing only important bugs and move out improvements and nice to have stuff. I believe we need to review again the current issues tasked for 1.0 and move those that are not important bugs. Also we should be careful not to create new issues for 1.0 if they are not bugs. Let's do this sorting and let's post back here. If it still doesn't fit in the planned Beta 4 and RC1 then we might need to include another Beta 5. WDYT?
