So, we need to come up with a new release schedule for Python 3.0. My suggestion: 15-Oct-2008 3.0 beta 4 05-Nov-2008 3.0 rc 2 19-Nov-2008 3.0 rc 3 03-Dec-2008 3.0 final Given what still needs to be done, is this a reasonable schedule? Do we need two more betas?
Yes to both questions.
I think that's contradictory :). If we need two betas, then 05-Nov becomes beta 5, 19-Nov is rc 2. If we don't need another rc then we can still do a final release on 03-Dec, otherwise we probably go 2 weeks later. I don't want to go much later than that though because then we get into the holiday season.
Do we need the full two weeks between rc's? Or is it too much of a pain to cut releases 3 weeks in a row?
E.g. something like:
15-Oct-2008 3.0 beta 4 05-Nov-2008 3.0 beta 5 19-Nov-2008 3.0 rc 2 26-Nov-2008 3.0 rc 3 (if needed) 03-Dec-2008 3.0 final
I won't be able to cut another release between the 15th and 5th, so at least that one should be 2 weeks. If we don't need the additional rc, then we can release early, which would put us just before the US Thanksgiving holiday. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBSOvcQ3EjvBPtnXfVAQK5mwP9GQfw3zNvGhJWiSkZ2gQ1LNr0rnmfVmpF WcDePkz3e5nsOjtkwiN0rlYHIQE9ySPfvtqqrInBW8y97y79mTjiM4S32XHLyAsd WEWRb0ClcLuZs+JveAb8KF5pO0RlDgX9Dd6puuPr8kGa5aN/rosfsnXra1GrYpj3 JQghQ89JNkE= =+Ymq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
