Postmortem and lessons learned for Linaro's release 2012.09

https://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles/1209/Release/Review


Highlights and Key Successes
============================

The  12.09 release cycle saw some early work on minimal ARMv8
bootstrap, with a very minimal rootfs to help other developers that
want to get involved with porting. This work is critical for the
future of Linux on ARMv8, as the major GNU/Linux distributions can use
it as base to bootstrap and support this new architechture.

Registration 
(http://connect.linaro.org/wp-login.php?redirect_to=/register-connect/)
is open for Linaro Connect (LCE 12 Copenhagen) which will be held from
29 Oct to 2 Nov at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Demark.  In
addition to the regular track sessions, LCE 12 will host three mini
summits: an ARMv8 (64-bit) mini-summit on the Tuesday, an Android
mini-summit on the Wednesday and a big.LITTLE mini-summit on the
Thursday.


Postmortem and Lessons Learned
==============================

Development and delivery planning continues to be a high priority as
Linaro continues to grow. The platform team has instituted a release
week standup meeting to coordinate development and release planning
for the upcoming cycle and consolidate QA status for the cycle.

As Linaro expands we will be reviewing our processes to determine the
best and most effiecient way to move forward.
