It's locked due to the amount of things done to open the next stream. There are no plans as for pretty much everyone releng is a "side" job. As long as things are that way there could be no planning. For any change to happen one should look into https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator/issues/1557 - find an item and automate, remove the need for it, etc. Alternatively, one comes with totally new releng procedures and prove that driving a release in the new way is working solution. P.S. What I can and do (there is just so much time I can afford) for each release is try to automate/fix/etc. 2-3 lowest hanging things per each release and repeat on the next cycle. > > -- > Best regards, > Thomas Singer > _______________________________________________ > platform-dev mailing list > platform-dev@eclipse.org > To unsubscribe from this list, visit > https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/platform-dev > > -- Aleksandar Kurtakov Red Hat Eclipse Team
