forgot to
start the necessary vote in time and plan to do this tomorrow now.
hmmm...for some reason, I didn't think we needed a vote on this...oh
well, my mistake obviously
According to this plan think of the following release plan to vote,
make
the bits available, prepare announcements, prepare the download page
(update for new languages), ...
1. start vote on Jan 23th and inform infra about the planned release
2. provide the bits after the final vote on Jan. 26th, I will do that
late
on Saturday becasue I am traveling to he US
3. inform infra and SourceForge about the release and wait at least 24
hours for synchronizing the mirrors, I would say until Tuesday
(Tuesday is
always a good day for an announcement)
4. in the meantime prepare an announcement and have it in place for
Tuesday, Jan 29th
Tuesday next week is also good.
I should be able to assist with the website in the evening hours (CET).
5. the same for the adapted download page
@Kay, all:
Any need to test the additions in a test area? I've just changed the 8
new languages in "languages.js" to be available ("n" ---> "y"), added
download links to the "other.html" and also for the checksums webpage.
It might be nice to able to do a "live" test once the packs are at
SourceForge -- I can't tell by this when that might be -- late Sun?
So, I would suggest uploading revisions to /download/test just to make
sure.
OK, I'll make them available in test area as soon as I can see the
packages online - maybe already on Sunday.
Marcus
Ok, great -- I will keep my eyes open for this.
6. put the changes live and fire up the announcement, share the news
via
all channels
7. adapt the update mechansim to support the new languages
... and make sure to exclude "hu" as it's already available.
Marcus
8. start counting the downloads ....
9. being proud of a further release and thank our translation
volunteers
10. continue towards AOO 4.0
11. invite further translation volunteers, QA and developers to join
AOO
and make 4.0 a further success and available in more languages
Ok 10. and 11. will have some time and a lot of work is in front of us
but
it will happen ;-)
Sorry that I forgot the vote in time and we have to postpone the
release
until next week.
Juergen
