Hi all,
according to our initial schedule [1] we want to release 1.4.0 this
friday.
Because of the recent delays in the development i want to ask if
this date is
valid anymore.
I'm not sure how much testing of the actual development branch has
been done.
In some areas its perhaps sufficient, but for the server as a whole
probably
not. In the past the stabilisation phase was two month, we aggreed
to change
this to one month because of the past experiences that no real
testing were
done.
I think this is caused to some extend from our lack of user
involvement in
this state of development. Other projects has a more formal process
with some
alpha and beta versions before a stable version is released, for
example.
Anyway, we should reach a descicion.
I can think of several options now:
1) release 1.4.0 as soon as possible, fix all bugs as they get
reported in the
stable branch (similar to 1.3.0). Try to fix already open bugs on
the tracker
before the release. For this option i propose the 11th July as date.
2) Review all existing issues reported on the tracker and fix them.
Release
1.4.0 when ready.
3) release 1.4.0-alpha this friday, ask for testing on the user
list. Release
a beta/ stable according the bugs/ user experiences in a few weeks
from now.
What do you think?
