[riot-devel] Release 2016.10 - Feature freeze

2016-11-01 Thread Martine Lenders
Dear releasing IoTlers,

we now entered the feature freeze for the upcoming release. I created
a release branch [1] and tagged the first release candidate [2]. So
please start testing it [3]. Maintainers: Don't forget that there are
already 6 open bugfixes [4] (there will be most likely more) so also
keep reviewing.

Just one addition since this somehow always lead to confusion: Feature
freeze does not mean that new features can't be merged to master any
more. It just means that the release (which now resides in the new
branch) won't get any new features. So if you have a feature you are
dying to get into master: go ahead and get it merged! It might be the
first feature for the next release ;-).

Happy hacking,
Martine

2016-10-31 Thread Martine Lenders
Dear release-sprinting IoTlers,
the feature freeze is upon us, but there are still 17 PRs open (9 of
those non-bugfixes, one is just waiting for Murdock to finish).
Because of those 9 I move the feature freeze to tomorrow 5pm
(2016-01-01 17:00 +0100). But everything that isn't merged by then
will not make it into the release. As usual during a feature freeze
the bugfixes can also be merged, but a backport to the release branch
needs to be provided.

Any feature PRs that get merged before the feature freeze that is not
currently marked for the release will of course also be part of the
release, but I urge both contributors and maintainers to focus on the
9 feature PRs marked tomorrow.

Happy hacking,
Martine

Re: [riot-devel] Release 2016.10

2016-10-26 Thread Martine Lenders
Hi,
with the last ACK'd PR of yesterdays Hack'n'ACK still waiting for a re-ACK
I think it's time for a short update and what's still ahead before the
feature freeze next Monday.

There are still 122 PRs open for this release. Some of those already have
low change of getting merged, but let's give it a try. To make things
easier to manage I sorted the open PRs into categories. Two of them (High
priority reviews and Low-hanging nice-to-haves) only have 14 PRs left
together (see [1]). @maintainers please focus your reviews on those until
Monday, especially those that are *not* marked as bug (bugs can always be
fixed after feature freeze).

There are also 128 issues open. Some of them have PRs open that are in the
categories above and some should be fixable rather straight forward. I put
those into the category "Fixable for release" under [1]. Please also have a
look if you can manage to fix those until Monday.

Happy hacking!
Martine

Re: [riot-devel] Release 2016.10

2016-10-18 Thread Martine Lenders
Good evening,
I finally sifted through all open issues and PRs and evaluated them
for the release [1]. If I missed one, please feel free to point them
out / move them to the respective columns.

Feel  also free to dig into the columns to find some issues that need
fixing until the feature freeze, especially "Fixable for release" (but
also "Open feature and enhancement requests" and "Known issues" if you
are more ambitious ;-))

These are the categories for now:

# Open feature and enhancement requests
Feature or enhancement requests I think to be important enough to get
a boost during the two weeks of sprint until the feature freeze (but
won't necessarily get merged to this point)

# Known issues
Bugs or failing applications that are known by now.

# Fixable for release
Low-bar issues (both "Known issues" and "Open feature and enhancement
requests") that might be fixable until the release to my assessment
(or issues were a corresponding non-WIP-PR already exists).

# Under review for release
Open PRs marked with the "Release 2016.10" milestone.

# Fixed issues from last release
Issues mentioned in the "Known issues" section of last release's
release notes and that are now fixed

# Fixed issues
Issues that were fixed during the release (and are not in "Fixed
issues from last release")

# New features & platforms
PRs that introduced new features or platforms.

# Merged
PRs that were merged during the release but are no new features or platforms.

Since both "Known issue" and the "Under review for release" columns
are rather large now, I'll to get things a little bit more manageable
in the next few days.

@maintainers: The project panel is now free to be edited by anyone.

Cheers,
Martine

2016-10-13 Thread Martine Lenders
Dear release-hungry IoTlers,
I'm currently in the process of reevaluating the Pull Requests and
issues for our autumn release [1]. While I'm doing this, here a few
important dates for the release:

* Feature Freeze: Monday, Oct 31 (we have a Hackathon at Wikimedia
coming up Oct 29 [2], so that's why it so late)
* Estimated Release date: Monday, Nov 7

So let's get merging.

Cheers,
Martine
