• 11.1 and 10.11 planning

    Hi Adam,

    Adam D. Barratt <adam@adam-barratt.org.uk> (2021-09-06):
    We've ended up being late with planning 10.11 due to the timing of the bullseye release, and also need to look at getting 11.1 sorted.

    Traditionally, we've combined stable and oldstable point releases (at
    2- and 4-month cadences) while both are supported. That would still be
    my preference, but I understand that not everyone on the Images side
    is so keen on the idea. Open questions in addition to dates are
    therefore whether we should do 10.11 and 11.1 on the same day and, if
    not, how close together they should be.

    A few suggested dates to get things going:

    September 18th - not great; means freezing this coming weekend
    September 25th - not great; I'm away during most of the week
    beforehand, so will be unlikely to be able to deal with any issues,
    make sure everything's ready, etc.
    October 2nd - OK for me
    October 9th - OK for me
    October 16th - OK for me

    Regarding d-i preps, I should be able to accomodate anything that gets
    picked up.


    Cheers,

    Hi,
