[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Always use staging for releases
Hi devs, I'd like to propose that we always go through Nexus staging from now on for our Main and Bugfix releases. The process would be: 1) Release to a staged repo (with the final version name) 2) Send a testing mail on devs and users lists to allow people to test the release. Note: we don't make the release avail on xwiki.org, just a mail is sent. 3) Wait for 48 hours 4) Promote the staged release to final and finish the release process (xwiki.org update, announcements, etc) We could start with 2.5. - Note 1: This means that in our release dates we should allow for 2 days more in order not to be late because of this. - Note 2: This is not for milestones or RC. Just for final and bugfix releases. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
