Schedule? I propose a release date for January, 31st. Early? When? The branch version-1.4.0 is already created and instead of cherry pick, I propose to rebase with master until the freeze. WDYT? For v1.3, this bug #47297 [1] collected all the blocking items and it worked well, I guess. Do we do the same? In any case, to help the release process, please: a. test =E2=80=93 especially the installer [2] b. fix bugs severity:important,serious [3,4] or report c. proofread the last manual [5] d. translate [6] e. highlight an item to ease the list of important changes The lesson of v1.0.1 [#,@] is: please help in testing the installer. :-) How does it sound? Last, Guix is a =E2=80=9Crolling-release=E2=80=9C, so what does it mean =E2= =80=98release=E2=80=99? :-) The main argument for releasing, IMHO, is communication and so attract potential new users. :-) Cheers, simon [0]: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [#] [@]
