Hi all, we would like to let you know that the release cycle for DHIS 2 will be be shifting from 4 to 3 yearly releases. The upcoming releases look like this:
2.27: June 1, 2017 2.28: October 1, 2017 2.29: February 1, 2018 A few observations led to this change: - The machinery around DHIS 2 of documentation, academy materials, release notes, web pages and so on is getting larger and the overhead of updating it for each release is becoming significant. - Implementing organizations seem to be lagging a few releases behind the latest on average in terms of testing and roll-out. This leads to a large demand for back-porting of fixes and even features, consuming a lot of developer time. So by reducing the number of releases by one we hope to reduce the overhead and free more time for new development. We promise to remain agile and user-driven in spite of this change. best regards, Lars -- Lars Helge Øverland Lead developer, DHIS 2 University of Oslo Skype: larshelgeoverland l...@dhis2.org http://www.dhis2.org <https://www.dhis2.org/>
