ReleaseStatus Minutes

The various functional groups of OpenOffice (QA, Development, User Exp., Documentation, Release Engineering, Marketing, Localization, etc.) are represented here. On every Monday 3pm German time (see here to convert to other time zones) this meeting will track the status of the upcoming releases. The members of this meeting review critical issues and deliverables for the releases and agree on the appropriate handling of those issues. They coordinate the actual release schedule.

Agenda for next meeting

• 3.1.1 time line
• 3.2 time line
• Discussion items can be listed here
  • critical issues on the way to 3.1.1 release
    • 64357 javaldx search too promiscuously

Participants: Marcus Lange, Martin Hollmichel, Mechtilde Stehmann, Rene Engelhard, Ruediger Timm, Stefan Baltzer, Chris Cheney, Joost Andrae, Olaf Felka, Oliver Craemer, Marc Neumann, Shinji Enoki, Jens-Heiner Rechtien, Uwe Luebbers, Fridrich Strba, Kai Ahrens, Rafaella Braconi

Other items

• OOo 3.1.1 timeline
  • Martin Hollmichel proposed to add August 6th as desired date for OOo 3.1.1rc1
  • last OOo 3.1.1 CWS integration date to be planned one week before: July 30th
  • there are plans to nominate the already approved CWS for an intermediate milestone based on OOO310 this week
• OOo 3.2.0 timeline
• Possible OOo 2.4.3
  • A new milestone based on OOH680 is available. Martin asked if we plan to release this as 2.4.3. Joost mentioned that current disk space usage on the extended mirror network doesn't allow to have 3.1.0rc2 and a 2.4.3 release side by side. The 3.1.0 release is about one month old and it is probable that there are native language teams that want to release a localization based on 3.1.0. Martin mentioned that we need a week to think about it.

Review of issues for OOo 3.1 if any

• The only discussion today was about CWS locatization35. Martin wanted first to see the first RC with the CWS integrated which should be around March, 12th. But from the past experience it seems better to have another snapshot build before the RC with the CWS. Then we can see if the quality is OK for a RC. Martin is planning with OOO310_m5 or m6 with localization35. The next build will be m4 which should be ready this week.

  • status localization: Ivo is working on a new localization CWS. He expects to have created it for Windows and for Linux and Solaris by tuesday or by wednesday. This time Ivo merged all strings again to the CWS to ensure this time nothing will get lost. There will be one week for testing. New deadline will be March 5th. Integration on master including localization will be not before March 12th. For broad testing it'll be available until March 15th. Localization build will be provided as "archive" build as tar.gz archive (without installer)
  • CWS calc48: Martin Hollmichel had to retarget several CWS to reduce traffic for 3.1 release. CWS frmdlg was nominated. CWS calc48 fixes a bunch of regressions of CWS frmdlg. René asked to integrate rptfix04. With all these changes Martin asked to talk about a potential 3.1 delay. Martin asked Jens-Heiner Rechtien if he knew the current integration status of OOO310_m3. Heiner answered that there are two CWS left with conflicts. Martin calculates with two weeks of delay for the 3.1 release. Martin will nominate CWS calc48 for OOo 3.1 again because it includes a fix for a serious issue regarding external references in charts.
  • Issue 99511 is a P1 build failure and automatically approved
  • For issue 98990 a maintainer of the PyUNO code needs to be found

  • Issue 92356 has been retargeted to 3.2. This issue has no duplicates or votes.

• the module "testautomation" has been created as separate source tarball since OOO310_m1

• Martin asked about what to do with issue 97134

• for OpenOffice.org 3.1
  • build of OOO310_m1 is still in progress
  • nomination and integration of CWS is a bit slow due to svn diff and merge operations that are much slower than expected. Not all nominated CWS got into m1. Remaining CWS will go into m2.
    • Frank Schoenheit asked about CWS dba31h and why it has not been integrated yet. Martin responded that not every issue within this CWS is declared as a stopper issue
  • for CWS dv07 Martin discovered some new strings that were already translated within the database but resulting as new strings within Pootle export.
  • CWS localization35 will get a bit delayed because we're still waiting for Arabic UI localization
  • localization status: starting on Feb 10., one new language with a three letter ISO code from India. Vladimir Glazunov is thinking about a workaround for this language. Martin proposed to wait for Arabic translation and then start with CWS localization35 and to leave-out the new language (Dogri)
  • discussion about rptfix04. Frank Schoenheit and René Engelhardt have been asked to follow-up with a phone call to clarify details. Frank will create a patch against vanilla jfreereport. René will write an issue for it with target 3.1.1 (if available)

Discussion on stopper issues

• for OpenOffice.org 3.0.1
  • René proposed to change the revision number of Sun Report Builder extension because there were changes for it in OOo 3.0.1. Martin Hollmichel will care about it independent of the 3.0.1 release
  • For the Presenter Console there seems to be a similar issue. Martin will care about it
  • René mentioned some versioning issue with ure
  • Martin asked if we're fine with a 3.0.1 release of OOO300_m15. There were no objections

• for OpenOffice.org 3.1
  • based on the fact that feature freeze date passed and all strings are now within translation process Martin objected that the schedule looks a little bit ambitious with the remaining child workspaces. Martin's proposal is to stay with the current code freeze but to calculate with some more time to the actual release. A new deadline Feb 12th, exceptional CWS approved by release team and a new estimated last CWS integration date on March 5th has been appproved.
  • Martin Damboldt asked about the integration of usage tracking into this release. René asked if this doesn't affect community builds that are done outside of Sun domain. Heiner told René that it's a "BUILD_SPECIAL" item. In this case René is indifferent to this item. No other objections were raised.
  • Martin plans to priorize the current approx. 30 urgent/critical CWS. He will make this transparent within EIS application
