Hi there, I've been slacking and forgot to post the summary of the first ZTK release team meeting. Here it is. I'll put it into SVN into the ztk-docs area as well. Cheers, Hanno ZTK meeting - 2010-05-06 ======================== Attendance ---------- ccomb, j-w, hannosch Agenda ------ - No fixed agenda, this is a kick-off meeting. Discussion ---------- Communication - We'll use the zope-dev mailing list for our discussions and no separate list Our role - We see ourselves as representatives of communities that make use of the ZTK - We should ensure stable releases of the ZTK, which are useful to our projects not more and not less Release outcome - Should produce a http://download.zope.org/ztk/release/1.1 with a ztk.cfg in it and a the zopeapp.cfg (for as long as it exists) in it. - Nice to have: an index (for easy_install people) - Should have some documentation site stating changes (http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/releases/overview-trunk.html) Release policies - At first manual releases (x.y.Z), automate the process to generate the bugfix releases later. We need to make sure to release only versions sets for which all tests passed. - ztk x.y.z. releases, stable package list per release - a ztk minor release per month would be ok - a ztk major release "when one of the consumers projects needs it". - backward compatibility breaking only happens in X.y.z that means, if we have a zope.component 4.0.0, it will be part of ZTK 2.0 or 3.0 - generally upstream releases happen in a 6-12 month interval, so the same timeline makes sense for ZTK releases Tasks ----- - We want 64bit Linux and Windows tests for the ZTK. j-w is bugging janjaap to create those. Maybe contact ccomb for adding slaves to "afpy" [j-w] - Make sure we have a buildbot testing the ZTK releases (and not SVN) [ccomb] Open points ----------- - Look at Tres's list of packages in all three frameworks, decide on a way to drop things from the initial ZTK set and on a process for the future. - Look at and update http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/about/coreextra.html for adding/removing policies, probably have a deprecated.cfg file - Decide on process for new feature versions and the process for going from 1.1.0 alpha to a final Next meeting ------------ 2010-05-18, 14:00 to 15:00 UTC before the zope-dev meeting, in #zope
