Stein Community Goals Acknowledgement

|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Teams should prepare their acknowledgement of `the community-wide
|
|
goals for Stein
|
|
<https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/stein/index.html>`__.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-summit:
|
|
|
|
OpenStack Summit
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The OpenStack Summit happens during this week in Berlin, Germany. It will
|
|
include a "Forum" in which people from all parts of our community will gather
|
|
to give feedback on the last release (Rocky) and discuss requirements for the
|
|
next development cycle (Stein).
|
|
|
|
.. _s-2:
|
|
|
|
Stein-2 milestone
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
10 January 2019 is the Stein-2 milestone window for projects following the
|
|
`release:cycle-with-milestones`_ model.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-final-lib:
|
|
|
|
Final release for non-client libraries
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Libraries that are not client libraries (Oslo and others) should issue their
|
|
final release during this week. That allows to give time for last-minute
|
|
changes before feature freeze.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-3:
|
|
|
|
Stein-3 milestone
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
28 February 2019 is the Stein-3 milestone window for projects following the
|
|
`release:cycle-with-milestones`_ model.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-goals-complete:
|
|
|
|
Stein Community Goals Completed
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Teams should prepare their documentation for completing `the
|
|
community-wide goals for Stein
|
|
<https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/stein/index.html>`__.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-ff:
|
|
|
|
Feature freeze
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The Stein-3 milestone marks feature freeze for projects following the
|
|
`release:cycle-with-milestones`_ model. No featureful patch should be landed
|
|
after this point. Exceptions may be granted by the project PTL.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-rf:
|
|
|
|
Requirements freeze
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
After the Stein-3 milestone, only critical requirements and constraints changes
|
|
will be allowed. Freezing our requirements list gives packagers downstream an
|
|
opportunity to catch up and prepare packages for everything necessary for
|
|
distributions of the upcoming release. The requirements remain frozen until the
|
|
stable branches are created, with the release candidates.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-final-clientlib:
|
|
|
|
Final release for client libraries
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Client libraries should issue their final release during this week, to match
|
|
feature freeze.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-soft-sf:
|
|
|
|
Soft StringFreeze
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
You are no longer allowed to accept proposed changes containing modifications
|
|
in user-facing strings. Such changes should be rejected by the review team and
|
|
postponed until the next series development opens (which should happen when RC1
|
|
is published).
|
|
|
|
.. _s-mf:
|
|
|
|
Membership Freeze
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Projects must participate in at least two milestones in order to be considered
|
|
part of the release. Projects made official after the second milestone, or
|
|
which fail to produce milestone releases for at least one of the first and
|
|
second milestones as well as the third milestone, are therefore not considered
|
|
part of the release for the cycle. This does not apply to cycle-trailing
|
|
packaging / lifecycle management projects.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-rc1:
|
|
|
|
RC1 target week
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
This week is the target for projects following the
|
|
`release:cycle-with-milestones`_ model to issue their first release candidate,
|
|
with a deadline of 21 March 2019.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-hard-sf:
|
|
|
|
Hard StringFreeze
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
This happens when the RC1 for the project is tagged. At this point, ideally
|
|
no strings are changed (or added, or removed), to give translator time to
|
|
finish up their efforts.
|
|
|
|
.. _s-finalrc:
|
|
|
|
Final RCs and intermediary releases
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The week of 1 April 2019 is the last week to issue release candidates or
|
|
intermediary releases before release week. During release week, only
|
|
final-release-critical releases will be accepted (at the discretion of the
|
|
release team).
|
|
|
|
.. _s-cycle-highlights:
|
|
|
|
Cycle highlights marketing deadline
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Cycle highlights need to be added to the release deliverables by this point to
|
|
be included in any marketing release messaging. Highlights may be added after
|
|
this point, but they will likely only be useful for historical purposes.
|
|
|
|
See the `project team guide <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/release-management.html#cycle-highlights>`_
|
|
for more details and instructions on adding these highlights.
