- Proposed Release Timeline #2 - 10 months (slightly longer timeframe, but if we moved to 12 months timeframe afterwards, then we'd just do a new release every October, before the holidays get started)
- June 3, 2011 : Beta 1 (Note: OR11 is June 7-11)
- July 8, 2011 : Beta 2
- August 19, 2011 : Feature Freeze
- August 26, 2011 : Final Documentation "Due Date"?
- September 2, 2011 : Release Candidate 1
- September 5-16, 2011 : Testathon
- September 30, 2011 : Release Candidate 2
- October 3-12, 2011 : Final Testing / Bug Fixing
- October 14, 2011 : Final Release
- Proposed Release Timeline #3 - 12-14 months (aimed to hopefully be released in time for submissions to OR 2012)
- Dec, 2011 : Feature Freeze
- Jan, 2012 : Testathon
- First Quarter, 2012 : Final Release
- The main differences between these timelines are the following:
- Timeline #1 = 9 months, Timeline #2 = 10 months
- In Timeline #1, we release two "Beta" releases before OR11. Whereas, in Timeline #2, we just release one "Beta" before OR11. In Timeline #3, we are aiming for final release in time for OR12 submissions.
- After this 1.8 release, several folks feel it might be good to move to a very consistent Release Schedule (e.g. every 12 months). If we went this route, then we would be "standardizing" on a release either, every September or , every October, or the beginning of each year. If you feel one month is better than the other, that may be a deciding factor.
