5.1.3 Release Plan

It has been a while since our last release and we have a fair number of bug fixes and minor improvements accumulated, so it's time for 5.1.3. My goal is to have the release out by March 30th, with 2 RCs between now and then to let us test everything out. Plan: ----------------------- March 9, 2006 Initial RC1, from this point on only bug fixes should go into the 5.1 branch and I'd like to ask that any major changes (due to a bug fix) to the code base are run by me. This means that you have just under a week to "sneak in" any remaining minor features ;-). March 23, 2006 RC2 (final one), only critical bug fixes (security fixes and regression fixes) from this point on. If we get any between 23rd and 30th, we'll probably need additional RCs. March 29-30, 2006 New 5.1.3 packaged and released. ------------------------ Pretty short plan, so hopefully Mr. Murphy will not interfere too much with its execution ;-). Ilia
