linux-wlan Release Policy/Checklist
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
[MSM Note: Here's a _quick_ attempt at a release policy for linux-wlan.
|
|
It's very brief and relatively simple. I'm open to suggestions
|
|
for improvement.
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
The following steps should be taken each time a new release of linux-wlan
|
|
is ready for distribution:
|
|
|
|
0) Make sure the current code builds, loads, associates, and ftps
|
|
cleanly on all 3 AVS lab build boxes.
|
|
1) Assign an W.X.Y-preZ version number.
|
|
2) Update the version number in config.in.
|
|
3) Tag the files.
|
|
4) Build the tarball. (Bonehead! double check next time that the tarball
|
|
and config.in version number match, eh?)
|
|
5) Release to ftp.
|
|
6) Announce on linux-wlan-annouce as a feature frozen 'pre' release.
|
|
7) Announce on freshmeat (Pavel? ;-)
|
|
8) Allow at least 24 hours for bug reports and (hopefully) bugfix patches.
|
|
9a) After 24 hour period, if bugfix patches and/or local fixes to bug
|
|
reports are present, apply patches and GOTO step 0.
|
|
9b) If no show-stopper bug-reports and/or patches are received during the
|
|
'pre' release period GOTO step 10.
|
|
10) Make sure the current code builds, loads, associates, and ftps
|
|
cleanly on all 3 AVS lab build boxes.
|
|
11) Assign an W.X.Y version number.
|
|
12) Update the version number in config.in.
|
|
13) Tag the files.
|
|
14) Build the tarball. (Bonehead! double check next time that the tarball
|
|
and config.in version number match, eh?)
|
|
15) Release to ftp.
|
|
16) Announce on linux-wlan-annouce as a final W.X.Y release.
|
|
17) Announce on freshmeat.
