Allen,
in the past the OpenOffice.org release process for micro releases looked
like this:
* propose a tentative release data 3 months behind the release of the
minor version
* propose issues and must haves for the micro release, new features and
new strings (which would cause a new translation cycle) were not allowed
** regressions newly introduced with the prior release get high priority
for the micorelease (must haves)
** regular defects can be nominated for the micro release by everybody
* once all nominated and accepted issues got fixed a release candidate
was provided and there was one week given for feedback. In case not all
issues got fixed or new regressions got introduced a new release
candidate cycle was done.
* to ensure that this process comes to an end, there was a release
committee with representatives from all areas (QA, Development,
native-lang communities, marketing (PR), Linux distros, user experience)
which decided on the final "go" for the release
for a 3.3.1 release I wouldn't change that process dramatically, so I
have just a small list of issues and security fixes in mind, plus the
changes we agree we have to do for branding. (I have one more favorite:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=112141 reintroduce color
codes for mime type icons).
I'm not famliar enough with the ASF release process so I have no final
proposal on how to do this for a 3.3.1 release, but I think we can use
the old process as a basis. The new setup gives the opportunity to do
some things better,
hth,
Martin

Hello Stefan,
I would only be willing to consider your proposal if it addressed in detail
each of the questions/issues I raised in this email:
https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-ooo-dev/201111.mbox/%3C0
[email protected]%3E
So I think your request to ooo-private is either premature or incomplete,
since none of the questions/issues I raised above have been addressed and
accepted.
Thank you,
Allen
