  • Thread-topic: Xen 4.17: Proposed release schedule

Hi,

As discussed in the community call on July 7, the release schedule for Xen 4.17
is proposed below. Please send comments ASAP and in any case by the end of
Friday the 15th of July. I hope we can finalise the schedule then.

Original date following the 8 month release cycle (August 2022) is likely to 
miss
considering the summer season in Europe and the fact that we would have had to
feature freeze in July, but this is likely to be not feasible anymore.

Based on the Xen 4.16 release timeline, for Xen 4.17 release:

Proposed option 1: Wed Sep 28, 2022
(+9 months from Xen 4.16 release, after Xen Summit)

- Last posting date          Fri Jul 29, 2022 (+3 weeks from now)

Patches adding new features should be posted to the mailing list
by this date, although perhaps not in their final version.

- Feature freeze             Fri Aug 19, 2022 (+3 weeks from Last posting date)

Patches adding new features should be committed by this date.
Straightforward bugfixes may continue to be accepted by maintainers.

- Code freeze                Fri Sep 9, 2022 (+3 weeks from Feature freeze)

Bugfixes only.

- Hard code freeze           Fri Sep 16, 2022 (+1 week from Code freeze)

Branch off staging-4.17. Bugfixes for serious bugs (including regressions),
and low-risk fixes only.

- Final commits              Fri Sep 23, 2022 (+1 week from Hard code freeze)

Docs/prep only

- Release                    Wed Sep 28, 2022


Proposed option 2: Wed Nov 2, 2022
(+1 year from Xen 4.16 release)

- Last posting date          Fri Aug 12, 2022 (+5 weeks from now)

- Feature freeze             Fri Sep 2, 2022 (+3 weeks from Last posting date)

- Code freeze                Fri Sep 23, 2022 (+3 weeks from Feature freeze)

- Hard code freeze           Fri Oct 14, 2022 (+3 weeks from Code freeze)

- Final commits              Fri Oct 28, 2022 (+2 weeks from Hard code freeze)

- Release                    Wed Nov 2, 2022


As soon as the release schedule is decided, I will post reminders one
week before important dates.

Kind regards,
Henry
