Topic 1: Release milestone table improvement

  • The updated table is here: Meta-release Milestones

  • Comments:

    • add a title to the 3rd columnย 

    • look at other release processes: OpenDaylight, ONAP, etc.

Topic 2: alpha-beta releases

Strong recommendation from Casey NOT to use alfa/beta releaseย ย 

API sub-projects should just use API versions

Proposals is to write a proposal based on

  • SemVer standard, andย 

  • define the link to the GitHub tags on the released branch and

  • the name of the GitHub release.

ย 

Topic 3: classification of API sub-projects

  • pushed to next week - Needs a proposal to be discussed as input to the meeting

  • Rafal to discuss with Herbert to write a proposal in confluence - it is about which APIs are mature enough to be taken into the meta release. Alternatively, all API sub projects could provide some version - with minimum requirements to be defined.ย 

  • Tanja view: define sets of requirements to pass for alpha, beta and meta release. Up to the API project to decide if to push an API to the meta release.

Topic 4: next week agenda

  • release management process
