Hi Stefan Thanks for the answer. No, I was just trying to understand how the list of bundles for the Sling Starter is compiled using the current list as a based with the latest released version seems to be a good starting point.
I will start soon to go through the document and create my To-Do list to get an idea on how much time it takes. Luckily Summer is a good time as my kids are at home giving me some additional free time. Then I will start with creating the Sling Starter for the next release. - Andy > On Jun 12, 2025, at 11:51 AM, Stefan Seifert > <stefan.seif...@diva-e.com.INVALID> wrote: > > hello andy. > > the list of bundles is given to the already existing sling starter and what > bundles are included there. the sling starter should always include latest > versions of all bundles, and although from time to time new bundle may be > added for a new feature, this is not part of the release process. > > or was you question directly related to the release notes document, and how > we generated the "aggregated list of changes" list of bundles there? this is > done with the https://github.com/apache/sling-launchpad-comparator > > stefan > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Andreas Schaefer <schaef...@me.com.INVALID> >> Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2025 8:29 PM >> To: dev@sling.apache.org >> Subject: Re: Sling Starter 14 release plans >> >> Hi >> >> I started looking into the Sling Starter Release Docs you listed and my >> main question is how did you guys collected the list of bundles to be >> included in a Release? >> >> Cheers - Andy >> >>> On Jun 10, 2025, at 6:34 AM, Robert Munteanu <romb...@apache.org> wrote: >>> >>> Hi Andy, >>> >>> On Fri, 2025-06-06 at 09:26 -0700, Andreas Schaefer wrote: >>>> Hi >>>> >>>> I am still available for that.
