+1 to branching off one release branch a year. Are we also trying to reach a consensus here that a release branch should be supported for ~3 years (i.e. that we are aiming to limit ourselves to 3 release branches plus trunk)? +1 to flexible dates. +1 to non-GA non-branched releases along the way. Jeremiah, I have nothing to add to your post. I think you did a fantastic job of combining how semver would work in combination Benedict's focus on cadence and reducing the community burden. It also helped highlight the different discussions to be had, that should be had separately. Thanks Benjamin for bringing it back to what was your original questions (sorry for the derail): > 1) What release cadence do we want to use for major/minor versions? > 2) How do we plan to ensure the quality of the releases? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@cassandra.apache.org
