Minutes/Updates

Release Management Consultation -

• 2 hours in total are needed to complete the consultation/Training
• Hour 1: 08/23
• Hour 2: ?
  • Next Week or a one off(?), closer together is better
  • Yes, scheduled.
• Community Release Manager
  • 1-2 people from community
• RM for LFN Projects - David McBride
  • Dedicated RM does not scale - No RM is chaos - Find a middle ground
  • Need - a stable, effective, repeatable process.
• Projects of projects - dependencies
• chat: looks like the current L3AF "release process" (such as it is) is documented at https://github.com/l3af-project/governance/blob/main/docs/RELEASE_PROCESS.md. I'm guessing there are gaps we will hear about in this presentation.
• L3AF is a project of projects: L3aF-arch, l3afd, epf program repo
• Interop
  • 1 proj w/mult releases: for eg: Linux/Windows.
• MUST adhere to release schedule
• L3AF project: New, release every 10-12 weeks
  • Currently no releases
• More mature - longer release periods
  • Linux kernel - 4 times a year
• Signoff process
  • TSC is not necessarily responsible for regular release signoff
    • The task may be delegated to another body
• Use the principle of minimum viable governance
• What about the PR around release?
