Last news of the front

Postby ennael » May 27th, '11, 10:55

Hi there

Here are some information about coming release, posted in mageia-dev mailing-list? That may help you to follow what is happening

- List of pending tasks before final release: http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=iso1 ... _countdown

- Security updates are now closed until stable is out. Please fill bug reports so we do not forget about the various fixes to correct.

- Release Notes: we need to have it done for thursday so that we can include it in mageia-release package. This can be updated later but
still we need something quite complete. i18n team will also needs to translate it before 1rst of june.

- Submit will be frozen on Thursday. If you wish to send a bugfix, it will have to go to updates repository. For new packages, or new version ( except for bugfixes ), the procedure is to send them to backport ( using backports_testing first is wanting test ). The exact procedure was not however decided yet.

- Final isos tests will be done with a experienced group of testers to be able to manage that process properly. First builds will start on Friday and isos should be delivered before 31rst of may in the evening.

- shortly after the release, cauldron will be reopen to let people submit. Some time may however be needed for sysadmins to prepare the switch. We will also start to discuss all details postponed previously such as release cycle, etc.


Cheers
ennael

- There have been discussions earlier.
- This thread here is not about any future plans which will be discussed after the release.
