Hi All,

Time to start thinking about numpy 1.10.

Sounds good. Do we have a volunteer for release manager already?

I guess it is my turn, unless someone else wants the experience.

What does a release manager do? I will eventually want to be able to tell my grandchildren that I once managed a numpy release, but am not sure if I can successfully handle it on my own right now. I will probably need to up my git foo, which is nothing to write home about...

Maybe for this one I can sign up for release minion, so you have someone to offload menial tasks?

I have no doubt that you can do this job well right now - you are vastly more experienced than I was when I picked up that role. It's not rocket science.

I have to run now, but here's a start to give you an idea of what it entails (some details and version numbers may be slightly outdated): https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/master/doc/HOWTO_RELEASE.rst.txt

Cheers,

Ralf

Jaime
