Hi all, We, GRUB maintainers, met in Moscow on October 10th and 11th and discussed maintenance related stuff. The most important things which we agreed are listed below.
We are going to release GRUB once per year, around February or March. According to this the next release, 2.02, is planned in February/March 2017. We will be applying most of reviewed/acked patches in next month or so. We are planning our presence at FOSDEM every year. Next year, 2017, we would like to discuss GRUB distros needs and other GRUB hot issues. This is the plan. Sadly we are not sure yet how it will look like in detail because we are still trying to establish organizational things. Anyway, at least one of us will be present there in 2017 and you will be able reach us in one way or another. We are going to hold GRUB maintainers F2F meetings once per year to discuss major GRUB maintainership issues. During last GRUB maintainers meeting we also discussed things related to GRUB testing, future development rules and policies, release management, etc. We agreed that due to complexity of some issues and our involvement in other projects we will try to assign various tasks to different GRUB maintainers and solve problems in steps. If you have any questions please drop us a line.
