Hi all, I'm volunteering to handle the release manager role for Pulsar 4.0. For the timeline, I'll suggest a slight update. Instead of having 3 release candidates, we would have 2 planned release candidates. The target release date remains Oct 10th.
2024-09-23 - Code freeze for 4.0 by branching branch-4.0 from the master branch 2024-09-26 - Target release date for 4.0 release candidate 1 2024-10-03 - Target release date for 4.0 release candidate 2 2024-10-10 - Target release date for 4.0 Regards, -Lari On 2024/08/09 08:36:05 Lari Hotari wrote: > Hi all, > > We have the next LTS release, Pulsar 4.0, scheduled for October. > For LTS, releases, our release policy states a 3 week recycle [1]. > > Suggested timeline: > 2024-08-09 - Create & merge PR to bump master branch's version to > 4.0.0-SNAPSHOT > 2024-09-15 - code freeze for 4.0 by branching branch-4.0 from master branch > 2024-09-19 - target release date of 4.0 release candidate 1 > 2024-09-26 - target release date of 4.0 release candidate 2 > 2024-10-03 - target release date of 4.0 release candidate 3 > 2024-10-10 - target release date of 4.0 > > Unless there's another proposal for the timeline, let's do a lazy consensus > decision on this timeline in the next 72 hours.
