Hi,
Now core-udpates is merged, it is good time to make a new release [0].
Schedule? I propose a release date for January, 31st. Early? When?
The branch version-1.4.0 is already created and instead of cherry pick,
I propose to rebase with master until the freeze. WDYT?
For v1.3, this bug #47297 [1] collected all the blocking items and it
worked well, I guess. Do we do the same?
In any case, to help the release process, please:
a. test – especially the installer [2]
b. fix bugs severity:important,serious [3,4] or report
c. proofread the last manual [5]
d. translate [6]
e. highlight an item to ease the list of important changes
The lesson of v1.0.1 [#,@] is: please help in testing the installer. :-)
How does it sound?
Last, Guix is a “rolling-release“, so what does it mean ‘release’? :-)
The main argument for releasing, IMHO, is communication and so attract
potential new users. :-)
Cheers,
simon
