Re: [RELEASE]: refined AOO 4.1 beta schedule
On 27/02/2014 jan i wrote: just for my understanding, dont we need to vote on the beta as well as the release. We send the beta out to general public, that would normally require a vote (might be a fast one). Everything has already been clarified well, i.e., 1) We vote on a thing that Juergen proposes to make available as OpenOffice 4.1 beta - We make the Beta available for download 2) We vote, a few weeks later, on a thing that Juergen proposes to make available as OpenOffice 4.1 - We make 4.1 officially available for download but, for other people reading this list (I know you know), a fast vote cannot be anything less than the usual 72-hours voting procedure, unless we are so fast to gather feedback from everybody in less than 72 hours. So the two votes are formally identical, even if the second one will surely impact more users and will require that we consider stoppers more carefully.

Re: [RELEASE]: refined AOO 4.1 beta schedule
FYI: we start the build based on AOO410 branch revision 1572868 On 2/27/14 4:50 PM, Jürgen Schmidt wrote: Hi, we are still verifying some fixes to identify the Beta as real beta, means some branding elements, names etc. And we are working on some serious bugfixes that we have identified already. The current plan is to start the build tomorrow and do the upload over the weekend. That means we should have a RC for AOO 4.1 beta available at the beginning of next. The new icons are still not complete and I am not sure how we can or should continue here. Replacing them for the final release is probably not a good idea. Work remaining before beta 1) Defect verification 2) Release Notes check, update and finalize the release notes [1] 3) Communications Clarify the communication/promotion for the beta. For example how many users do we want to reach with the beta. 4) Release vote Based on this a possible schedule can be March 4th: availability of AOO 41. Beta RC + start vote March 10th: public availability of AOO 41. Beta (until March 31th) ...: additional snapshot builds based on the beta including showstopper fixes April 2th: availability of AOO 4.1 RC April 7th: public availability of AOO 4.1 Any opinions or feedback Juergen [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.1+Release+Notes - To unsubscribe, e-mail: qa-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: qa-h...@openoffice.apache.org
