Hi everybody, Now that 5.2 is getting close to being released, I think it’s time to have a look at a time schedule for 5.3. I’d like 5.3 to be less feature oriented then 5.2 has been, and more focused on stability and performance.
At the same time I would like to adjust our release schedules, so that we don’t end up releasing directly before summer vacations again. After talking with the release team and some other people, I’d believe we should go for the following schedule: 14.2.2014 Feature Freeze 20.2.2014 Alpha Release 13.3.2014 Beta Release 10.4.2014 Release Candidate 29.4.2014 Final Release This is shorter then the 6 months we aim for in the longer term, but will then finally bring us into a spring/autumn cycle. It implies that feature freeze comes earlier than many of you might have expected. But according to our experiences with 5.1 and 5.2 we will need a bit more then 2 months for the alpha/beta/RC/final cycle. The schedule above is about 2.5 months, to account for easter. So please have a look at the schedule above and try to adjust your plans accordingly.
