This stems out of a discussion we had at ApacheCon about how best to do releases and create stability for Traffic Server.
httpd's VERSIONING: <https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/VERSIONING> This document explains how httpd is trying to balance maintaining a stable version used by millions, and at the same time introduce new features quickly. I believe TS would benefit from adopting a similar philosophy on stability of APIs. httpd's release Q&A: <http://httpd.apache.org/dev/release.html> This document covers in Q&A style various bits of info on how HTTPD's releases are done. The tools httpd uses to make a release are here: <https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/site/trunk/dist/tools/release.sh> It would also be good to get TS building in CI, if someone has time you should mail infrastructure@ and work to get it all setup: <http://ci.apache.org/> Any questions I can answer? -Paul
