| <h3>What is the game plan?</h3> |
| <p> |
| The Eclipse Neon Service Release 2 ("Neon Update 3 (4.6.3)") endgame involves building |
| a series of release candidates leading to the Eclipse project's contribution to the |
| Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) release. The Eclipse project version number for this release is 4.6.3. |
| By its nature, this update release contains fixes to a small number |
| of serious problems found in the June 2016 Neon (4.6) release, , as well as carefully selected |
| feature and API additions. The new feature and API additions must be low-risk by nature, as well |
| as tested and proven in master before they can be backported. |
| We make and verify each changes carefully, so that we do not need to tie up the entire development |
| team in time-consuming test passes. As always, we welcome help from the |
| community with testing the release candidates. By default, Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) |
| is supposed to work exactly like the initial Neon (4.6) release except for the problems we intended |
| to fix. All problems fixed in Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) are in the Eclipse bugzilla database |
| and flagged with Target Milestone "4.6.3" (query bugzilla for |
| the <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced;resolution=FIXED;target_milestone=4.6.3;product=Equinox;product=JDT;product=PDE;product=Platform;classification=Eclipse;classification=RT">complete |
| list of bugs fixed in Neon Update 3 (4.6.3)</a>). So we're most interested in identifying |
| regressions where we've changed something that we did not intend to. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>General announcements during the Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) endgame are posted to the |
| <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/platform-releng-dev">platform-releng-dev@eclipse.org</a> |
| developer mailing list. Anyone participating in the endgame should be subscribed |
| to this list, and should direct any general questions and comments about the process |
| there as well.</p> |
| |
| <strong>API change approval</strong> |
| <p> |
| No API changes are expected during a update release. Any exception must be |
| approved by the PMC. No changes are to be released without prior approval |
| and associated bug report. Please send the request for approval to the eclipse-pmc |
| mailing list. If a change is made to API to make it binary compatible with |
| a previous release, technically this is still an API change, and thus it should be treated |
| in the same way as any other API change requests. |
| </p> |
| |
| <strong>Feature work approval</strong> |
| <p> |
| Any feature work must be approved by the PMC. No changes are to be released without prior approval |
| and associated bug report. Please send the request for approval to the eclipse-pmc |
| mailing list. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <strong>RC1 - Feature and API Freeze</strong> |
| <p> |
| Release candidate 1 is a warm-up build to ensure the release train build |
| process is in place and all projects are making contributions. All fixes submitted |
| to update stream builds must have a component lead or PMC vote on the bug report, |
| and the fix must be reviewed by an additional committer (any committer other than |
| the one who made the fix). |
| <br> |
| No new features or APIs are allowed after RC1. |
| </p> |
| |
| <strong>RC2</strong> |
| <p> |
| Release candidate containing fixes for the majority of known outstanding |
| defects that we intend to fix for Neon Update 3 (4.6.3). At the end of RC2 build, |
| there should not be any open defects tagged 4.6.3. All fixes submitted |
| to the maintenance stream builds must have a component lead or PMC vote on the bug report, |
| and the fix must be reviewed by an additional committer (any committer other than |
| the one who made the fix). |
| </p> |
| |
| <strong>Test pass using RC2</strong> |
| <p>Concerted 1-day testing effort using RC2 involving entire community including |
| all component teams. The goal is to verify all the fixes and check for any regressions. |
| </p> |
| |
| <strong>RC3</strong> |
| <p>Release candidate containing fixes for all known outstanding defects |
| that we intend to fix for Neon Update 3 (4.6.3). All fixes submitted to RC3 must have a PMC vote on the bug report, |
| and the fix must be reviewed by an additional committer (any committer other than |
| the one who made the fix). |
| Ensure that all feature/plugin versions have been consistently incremented when needed. |
| </p> |
| |
| <strong>Test pass using RC3</strong> |
| <p>Concerted 1-day testing effort using RC3 involving entire community |
| including all component teams. The goal is to verify all the fixes, check |
| for any regressions and sanity check our RC3 candidate. |
| </p> |
| |
| <strong>RC4</strong> |
| <p>Release candidate 4, if required, to fix problems detected during the test pass. |
| We expect NO CHANGE at this point. If you find a show stopper, please notify ASAP the |
| <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/eclipse-pmc">eclipse-pmc@eclipse.org</a> mailing list. |
| All fixes submitted to RC4 must have a PMC vote on the bug report and be reviewed |
| by an additional committer (any committer other than the one who made the fix). |
| </p> |
| <p>No test pass is scheduled unless significant contributions occurred. If so, |
| then Thursday would be elected for a one day test pass</p> |
| |
| <strong>Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) Release</strong> |
| <p>The Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) release should be complete and available for download by |
| Thursday, March 23, 2017 as part of the <a href="https://wiki.eclipse.org/Neon/Simultaneous_Release_Plan#Neon.3">Neon |
| coordinated service release</a> . If product teams intending |
| to ship on Neon Update 3 (4.6.3) uncover further serious defects during the endgame, |
| we may schedule additional release candidate builds to incorporate fixes. |
