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?
