I like the idea of dry-running the release procedure with no fixes included. Also, thanks Mark and Olivier for working around you schedules to get this implemented sooner rather than later.

Do I understand correctly that you suggest to otherwise continue with 2.235 line as it was planned, 2.235.4 RC on 29th of July and 2.235.4 Release on 12th of August?

Are there any objections to Mark's proposal?

Thank you Mark for issuing this proposal and clarifying the steps.
+1 from me as well.

Please don’t hesitate to ask if any help is needed.

Thx, Vlad

+1 would be great to do one release while Olivier is around.

Would be good to have at least one user facing change in it, but I guess not required.

Thanks

    The core release automation process has been used to deliver
    weekly releases since mid-April.  It was used to deliver the
    weekly security release recently.  We are ready to deliver the
    Long Term Support (LTS) releases with core release automation.

    Olivier Vernin has been the lead implementer of core release
    automation work.  He'll be unavailable in August.  We'd like to
    deliver an LTS next week, while he is still available.  We'll use
    that delivery to train others and verify the release process
    documentation.  We'll then run future core releases entirely from
    the core release automation.

    *Proposal:*

    Create Jenkins 2.235.3 LTS release the week of July 27 using core
    release automation.  We'll use the current tip of the stable-2.235
    branch.  build the same code as was used for Jenkins 2.235.2 with
    a single .  The changes between 2.235.2 and 2.235.3 would be:

      * Increment the version number from 2.235.2 to 2.235.3
      * Use the new repository signing key for the Debian/Ubuntu, Red
        Hat/CentOS, and OpenSUSE repositories
      * Use acceptance test harness version as committed on the
        stable-2.235 branch

    We've been using the new repository signing keys with weekly
    builds for the last several months.  It is now time to switch to
    the new repository signing keys for the long term support releases.

    *Proposed steps:*

      * Oliver Gondza approve the plan (as release officer)
      * Mark Waite prepare a blog post announcing the change of
        repository signing keys and the steps administrators must take
        to install the new repository keys
      * Mark Waite prepare the changelog and upgrade guide for Jenkins
        2.235.3 with instructions for administrators to install the
        new repository keys
      * Olivier Vernin and Mark Waite generate the 2.235.3 LTS build
        July 27, 28, or 29 using the core release automation based on
        the current contents of the stable-2.235 branch

    Comments, concerns, questions?

    Thanks,
    Mark Waite
