The new release process already addresses this. After we have it in place, it will be straightforward. It is ok to discuss, but very much has already been planned and agreed. We just need to take it into use.
However the fact that Qt is a cross-platform toolkit still remains an item we need to consider. So it will still require a lot of verification work even with the new process. But it is anyway much better than the current one where there is no release branch to use. Yours, -- Tuukka Rafael Roquetto kirjoitti 5.10.2012 17:33: Hello all, Following the discussion concerning 4.8.3-1 vs 4.8.4, I think an important gap on the workflow has been exposed: how to release critical patches? I am not sure if this makes sense, since I am entirely not acquitanted to the entire release process, but would anyone have any suggestion or comments on how we could issue these exceptional releases that should only include highly critical fixes (i.e. the SSL one)? Feedback?
