[drupal-devel] Tight release cycles

[Karoly Negyesi]

Hi!

Let's start making a calendar for next year's releases now and stick to it.

My proposal:

2005 dec 26 code freeze (or Jan 2, 2006)
2006 feb 6 Drupal 4.8
2006 may 1 code freeze
2006 june 5 Drupal 4.9
2006 aug 28 code freeze
2006 oct 2 Drupal 5.0
2007 jan 1 code freeze
2007 feb 5 Drupal 5.1
...

We always have five weeks for bug fixing and three months of features.

Let's give active support for actual release and security fixes for one 
version behind and two versions back is simply not supported.

Regards

NK
