Subject: Update on the timeline for the release v1.2.
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2020 17:17:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJ3okZ2v9US=iawTtzFj3jw3dzrj_BH0R-ddeCEDBj1EU5Ct7w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <863630u6ap.fsf@gmail.com>

Dear,

The date Nov. 6th seems a more reasonable target as a release date.

From what I am reading,

 - the tests of the installer are work ongoing
 - important packages updates are also ongoing (Julia, OCaml, ...)
 - fixes
 - manual typos and various improvement
 - staging is freezed

Contributors, please run "guix pull", update the packages you are
using and report unexpected behaviour.

Committers, the project keeps moving forward because you not only push
your own awesome changes, but also offer some of your time reviewing
and pushing other people’s changes. As a committer, you’re welcome to
use your expertise and commit rights to help other contributors.
[quoting the manual ;-)]


However, I am sorry, I have not been able to read what is happening on
the translation side --- aside French one ;-).  How is the shape?

The bug #43591 [0] hitting --system or --target (I am still confused
which one. :-)) is in progress.  And these architectures will not be
released, right?


The proposed coming timeline is:

 - freeze starting the Oct. 26th
 - last round for testing all over the week
 - unfreeze the Oct. 29th and then create the branch
 - minor bug fixes and all the papeword around (NEWS, blog, etc.)
 - release Nov. 6th.

Does this timeline sound good,

@Mathieu: to generate the various images?
@Marius: to merge staging?
@Translators: about the string-freeze,  almost 2 weeks?


All the best,
simon
