Questions about the release cycle #2046
Comments
Hello @ryysud! I am stealing this issue from @azdagron :)
There is no published release schedule because the timing can be highly variable and depends on a lot of different things. That said, we try to release approximately once a month.
Most of the time, we "release what we have". New features are usually shipped with minor releases unless they represent a compatibility concern. If there is a compatibility concern, the feature is held back until the next major release. Release candidates are identified one week before release. Features that get merged during this one week window won't ship with the release unless it's an important bugfix. Much of our release process is documented in MAINTAINERS.md. I am curious about why you ask this question :). Can you tell me a little more about what you're trying to learn/plan/understand? We know that there is room to improve in the area of release observability, however we're not quite sure where our time would be best spent. |
Thank you for your answer, @evan2645! I understood the release cycle of SPIRE very well!
I explain the background of the question.
Since I am part of the SPIRE Development Team,
So I asked the question because we wanted to know if SPIRE has the release cycle rule like Kubernetes. |
@ryysud I am wondering about this issue - do you feel like the current release process is sufficient for you? Or do you need more visibility into releases, and if so, do you have any ideas on how to improve? I certainly feel like we could be doing better, but am not sure exactly how :) |
Hi, I have two questions about the release cycle of SPIRE.
Thank you.
