We have gained alot of speed the last six month or so and I think the future looks bright but the lack of a proper process of things is disturbing and might jeopardize things. We have discussed this before and a good proposal was made with people agreeing to stick to it. We haven't really used it but I think we should give it another try. A proper release team and release process will ensure quality in our products and avoid shitty releases that influx on other of our products that has and will be great. A release team with a clear and _easy_ process. Using freeze periods. Release dependent components together - without long waiting. Christoph and I have already told before that we are willing to work with this process. Some of the other packagers I seem to recall in this is Andrea and Andrew, and at IRC there have been more voices raised for this. As far as I can see we can cover the major distributions package managers as front line testers and I can handle the translation errors and call for updates. As long as developers just producs code and tell us when to start the process it will float and if you don't want to engage in the release process you don't have to. When do we start? Can we have a wiki page with all the relevant steps and procedures? -- brother ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
