Hi all,
This reminds me a bit of the HBase times before we went to a more or less
strict monthly release train.
It was harder to stabilize a release and there were lots of last minutes
changes and fixes, just because each release was big (in terms of the number of
changes).In addition folks were worried when the next release would come about
and would push many changes towards the end of the release cycle.
Most of that stopped with the monthly releases. Commit rates are more even,
there's no last minute flurry of changes (after all, the next release is just a
month away).Users get more frequent release, each with less change and less
risk, and they get bug fixes earlier.
4.7 was about 4 months ago, 4.6 was about 4 months before that.For my
(personal) taste that is fairly infrequent and the release are too big and too
hard to stabilize - again just my personal opinion, please do not take this in
a negative way.
Any interest in going to smaller and more frequent releases in Phoenix?
Thoughts? Comments?
Thanks.
-- Lars
(If it helps I'll offer to RM a few releases. In that case I'd adhere to a
monthly release train; whatever change or feature is ready gets on the train,
what's not ready waits for the next train to arrive a month later.)
