[LLVMdev] LLVM 3.3.1 Release Plans

[Tom Stellard]

Hi,

The number of stable patches has slowed down in the last few weeks, and
we are approaching the halfway point between 3.3 and 3.4, so I think now
is a good time to start planning for the 3.3.1 release.  Here is the
tentative schedule:

September 3: 3.3.1-rc1
  - This won't actually be a 'real' Release Candidate.  The purpose of
    rc1 will be to update and test the release scripts and build system
    to make sure they work properly with dot releases.  I will still
    accept stable patches until rc2


September 10: 3.3.1-rc2
  - The first 'real' release candidate.  Qualification testing will
    begin and only patches that fix regressions since 3.3 will be
    accepted.


September 17: 3.3.1 or 3.3.1-rc3
  - If there are no changes since -rc2, then it will become the 3.3.1 release,
    otherwise there will be a 3.3.1-rc3


September 24: 3.3.1
  - If we need to do an -rc3 then this will be the final release.


If you are interested in helping test the release, please send me an
email with the platform you can test on.  Also, if anyone is interested
in helping with the script / build system changes that may be required,
let me know too.

Thanks,
Tom
