[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Maintenance Releases for 2.5 and 2.6

[Holly Brennan]

Thanks, Ben!

We've decided to be a little conservative and not jump on the OpenSRF 2.4 bandwagon yet, thus no jump to 2.7. But since we delayed deciding that, we won't miss out on the latest and greatest 2.6!

Good work everyone!

Hi Holly,

The next in the 2.6 series is expected to be 2.6.4, yes. For 2.5 series, it will be 2.5.8.

As an example, you can view on Launchpad, this milestone for 2.6.4 (every bug ticket that has a status of "Fix Committed" is expected to be part of that maintenance release):
https://launchpad.net/evergreen/+milestone/2.6.4

This link shows all the series and milestones; I like the visual representation of Evergreen releases, black dots are released, white dots are pending:  https://launchpad.net/evergreen/+series

Piggybacking on Dan's announcement, next Wednesday, I will also be planning to work up a maintenance release for the 2.7 series as well, which will be 2.7.1.

Thanks Dan!

PS:  I think Dan might have meant "3 months" of security-only release fixes for 2.5 series after this last one is released.  The community only supports 15 months for releases, 12 months regular, 3 months security-only.
