Subject: DuMuX 3.7 Release and Important Information


Dear DuMuX users and developers,


I am pleased to announce the schedule and important information of the next 
DuMuX release: DuMuX 3.7 !


Please consider the following dates in your development / commit strategy:

== Soft feature freeze: 10th March 2023 (3 weeks prior to the release) ==
- All major changes that should be included and are not yet committed should be 
announced. Add a comment to 
Issue#1214<https://git.iws.uni-stuttgart.de/dumux-repositories/dumux/-/issues/1214>
 describing the feature and the areas affected by the change.
- Major changes not announced will be rejected after the soft freeze.
- The representative assigned to each major task will report on their remaining 
tasks.


== Hard feature freeze: 17th March 2023 (2 weeks prior to the release) ==
- All major changes must be committed before the hard feature freeze.
- Invasive fixes which might break other code are only accepted after 
consultation with the release manager (small fixes are ok).
- Try to get your bugs fixed, your tests included and your documentation 
written before the hard feature freeze.
- The representative assigned to each major task will give a final report on 
what was finished and what must be postponed until the next release.

== Final testing: 24th March 2023 (1 week prior to the release) ==
- No commits are allowed except those performed by the release manager, or 
under the explicit authorization of the release manager.
- Release candidate packages will be provided.
- Tests on the various systems, compilers, with different settings are run. 
Everyone should at least test their own tests!

== DuMuX 3.7 release: 31st March 2023 ==
- Celebrate, great discussions, and even better research code. If this 
celebration should need to occur virtually, we will set up a celebration telcon.

Looking forward to a good release,

Hamza
(Release manager DuMuX 3.7)
