Glad to hear. Happy to have you in the release team. How often do you think we should have minor releases? On y fix schedule or when enough patches have been in? We could look and see if we should do one for the 1.21.X line. That might be a good exercise to get started. You have an interest in working on this (with my help)? > Stefan do you have any documentation on how release plan works? You missed my answer to your other mail (next release)? Here are my notes how I did the releases: https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/release_procedure/ Pretty sure there are many things that are not clear to anyone but me. Feel free to edit the wiki and ask me. If you could get yourself comfortable with the steps involved that would already be a help. For example try to produce some release tarballs on your local machine and see if you run into troubles. regards Stefan Schmidt > Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef> > > ________________________________ > From: Stefan Schmidt <ste...@datenfreihafen.org> > Sent: Wednesday, January 9, 2019 16:22 > To: e > Subject: [E-devel] 1.22 schedule proposal > > Hello. > > Its almost 5 months since we released 1.21 and I stepped down. > > When talking with people I got help offers on the release handling but > no-one stepped up to fully take a lead on this.
