Hi Guys,
(copying the OPNFV TSC) To be honest I think this will work pretty well. The development teams working with ODL are taking your regular builds anyway and having that stable version for the last few weeks of testing would seem to provide enough time to settle any last minute adjustments that might pop up. I would add that as we continue our XCI work and cross project test alignment, these three weeks will likely feel like an eternity as OPNFV testing could play a role in helping establish stability during the RC phases. Suffice to say I personally have a pretty good feeling about a schedule that looks like this. / Chris From: <[email protected]> on behalf of Colin Dixon <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, 13 April 2017 at 18:48 To: Ed Warnicke <[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>, "[email protected]" <[email protected]>, "<[email protected]>" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [OpenDaylight TSC] notes on 6-month future release schedules OPNFV releases in late September and late March. The naive answer is that it gives them 2-3 weeks to integrate. The less naive answer is that they have 4-7 weeks to integrate using our RCs. While our RCs aren't always stable, the parts that OPNFV integrates with are usually the more stable parts of our RCs and integration does happen in practice during that period. The same general principle applies to our integration with OpenStack. Further, there was actually pretty strong feeling that this would do a better job of aligning mindsets between the different projects since we will likely be thinking about release and integration at the same time instead of one project thinking about release and integration while the other is still finishing up features. --Colin On Thu, Apr 13, 2017 at 9:44 AM, Ed Warnicke <[email protected]> wrote: How does this line up with OpNFV?

We've also found out that the shift in release dates for OpenStack was a one-time adjustment as they factor their DDFs out of their summits. That means that OpenStack will be targeting late February and late March releases going forward. That being combined with the existing preference from a lot of people that early March and early September were good dates for OpenDaylight releases means our current plan is to have a small Nitrogen releases to line up with 3/7 and 9/7 releases going forward. So, something like this. Nitrogen Mini-release Schedule ---- off0 off1 off2 start: 5/7 ?? M1: 5/21 5/28 6/7 [Release Plan] (we could do this if we wanted to, but overhead) M3: 6/21 6/28 7/7 [API freeze] M4: 7/21 7/28 8/7 [Code freeze] RCs: 8/7-9/7 (continuous build) release: 9/7 SR1: 10/7 SR2: 12/7 SR3: 2/7 SR4: somewhere in 3/21-5/7 Oxygen (and all future even element number releases) ---- off0 off1 off2 start: 9/7 M1: 10/7 10/14 10/21 M2: 11/7 11/14 11/21 M3: 12/7 12/14 12/21 [note M3-M4 will likely be short since M4: 1/7 1/14 1/21 it includes 12/25-1/1] RCs: 1/21-3/7 (continuous build) release: 3/7 SR1: 4/7 SR2: 6/7 SR3: 8/7 SR4: somewhere in 9/21-11/7 Fluorine (and all future odd element number releases) ---- off0 off1 off2 start: 3/7 M1: 4/7 4/14 4/21 M2: 5/7 5/14 5/21 M3: 6/7 6/14 6/21 M4: 7/7 7/14 7/21 RCs: 7/21-9/7 (continuous build) release: 9/7 SR1: 10/7 SR2: 12/7 SR3: 2/7 SR4: somewhere in 3/21-5/7 Note that this makes the assumptions that: 1.) We will combine M1 and M2 and require a final release plan at that time. 2.) All other milestones shift down by one, so M2 is feature freeze, M3 is API freeze and M4 is code freeze 3.) We would have SRs 1, 3, and 5 months after the release and the final SR would fall sometime in between 2 weeks and 2 months after the next release None of this is final, but it is the grown consensus of the working group and we're looking to get feedback. --Colin _______________________________________________ TSC mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opendaylight.org/mailman/listinfo/tsc _______________________________________________ TSC mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opendaylight.org/mailman/listinfo/tsc
