I don't think so. The release itself is done with scripts/release.pl. > My practical questions are: > * when shall we stop merging bugfixes ? or can we continue merging without > issues? (IIRC I think we have to hold for a bit?) Merging stuff to master between the release time and the push of the release commits/branches would be bad (esp. the translations take a while to pull and push). Committing new fixes to the fresh release branch could also be postponed a bit before the packages are out - in case there have to be some packaging related updates for stuff that pops up during packaging. Otherwise those fresh fixes would also end up in the packages. Although that would not be actual harm - probably right the opposite - but maybe unexpected. Committing to the master branch right after the release is fine however. > * when can we start merging features to master again? (as soon as the new > release-3_x branch is created?) Yes.
