Release Milestones
| Milestone | Date | Deliverables |
|---|---|---|
| F0 | 2017-06-08 | APIs frozen. Only low-risk changes accepted on main branch. |
| RC1 | 2017-06-22 (F0+17) | Code complete, pull first release throttle branch, only bug fixes accepted on throttle train. After pull: main branch reopens for new feature / risky commits. First artifacts posted. |
| RC2 | 2017-07-05 (RC1+17) | Second artifacts posted. |
| Formal Release | 2017-07-19 (RC2+17) | 17.07 artifacts available |
NOTE: Dates chosen based on:
- mid-month release
- milestone + days
- day after VPP community meeting, for discussion, go/no-go
Once we've pulled the 17.07 release throttle
We need to be disciplined with respect to bugfix commits. Here are a few common-sense suggestions:
- All bug fixes must be double-committed to the release throttle as well as to the master branch
- Commit first to the release throttle, then "git cherry-pick" into master
- Manual merges may be required, depending on the degree of divergence between throttle and master
- All bug fixes need to have a Jira ticket
- Please put Jira IDs into the commit messages.
- Please use the same Jira ID
