Hi,
first of all I am volunteering to act as release manager for 3.4.1 as
well if our community think it's a good idea.
Independent of the release manager I would like to propose the following
time schedule and content for a 3.4.1.
Content
=======
- we will support further languages where we have volunteers working on
translation and where we have ideally 100% UI coverage. I think we
should focus and balance the support of new languages on demand and
completeness. Right now we have Finnish and British English with an
updated 100% UI translation. We can also think about language packs only.
- we will include important and critical bug fixes or necessary changes.
Bugs/tasks have to be proposed and discussed on the ooo-dev mailing list
and the issue should be marked with the "3.4.1_release_blocker" flag,
concrete the "?" value.
- we will include potential security fixes
Feature development and less important bugfixes should happen on the
trunk and will be included in the next major/minor release (3.5, 3.6,
4.0, ...). The micro release should include minimal functional changes
only.
Time schedule
=============
- starting first week of June weekly developer snapshots
- June 30, potential translation have to be ready to get included
- July 25, providing RC and start voting
- July 31, planned release
QA should we continuously do on the dev builds.
Opinions, comments are welcome and appreciated.
Juergen
