Hi, I know in the past this has taken some people by surprise. Both OE-Core and the Yocto Project are aiming at release points every six months, roughly October and April. In order to prepare for those there is a period of 6-8 weeks beforehand which is aimed at stabilisation and bug fixing.
We are now entering that window where we need to heavily taper off new features and concentrate on the quality and stability of the release which is scheduled for mid October. I'm not saying no new feature patches will get taken but I will be asking questions like "why is this being worked on?" and "shouldn't this wait until after release?". I'd really like to see effort being focused on bugs now, not enhancements. I know there are a couple of things which have been worked on for a while and have been slightly delayed which I'd probably lean towards taking (some offline postinstall work spring to mind). I was asked whether I'd take a binutils update in a couple of weeks and the answer is no, I'd very likely not as we're at the point we need to lock in on the toolchain now (and major kernel version). Does anyone have any questions?
