As a lurker on this mailing list, I'd just like to comment from where in my
opinion the misunderstanding here stems from.
Back in the days before KiCad migrated to GitLab, any release was usually
announced by Wayne (e.g. "I am going to tag 5.x.x on x.x. any comments on
this?"). Usually the

The emails on this mailing list is the "heads up". Anyhow, I don't
think we need to change anything other than maybe set an _rc1 tag when
announcing an imminent stable tag, for every stable tag -- big or
small. And make sure to have a strict string freeze. That will allow
translations to flow in

Even more: some distros - I'm writing as the maintainer of FreeBSD's
KiCAD packages - are waiting for the release
Hi all,
I feel kind of bad now, my "Christmas special" email was not supposed to be
taken so seriously.
I don't think there is any huge rush, and if we need more time to prepare
the release, using Wayne's original timeline or something in the middle
(1-January release?) would also be fine, I
This is a distributed effort. We can't wait to announce it untill all habe
bumped the pkgver, this could mean that we have builds released months
before we even announced it and it will confuse users. Having "major"
platforms covered and then announce is a good comprimise. Two of those
don't are

Hi Carsten
This is a balancing act. Quite some time ago we decided that we should
make the release _announcement_ (on the website) when we have build
available for some major platforms, these specifically being windows,
ubuntu ppa and macos, mostly because that gives us some good
"coverage" and
