[edk2-announce] Hard Feature Freeze starts from 2019-03-01(00:00:00 UTC-8) for edk2-stable201903

[Gao, Liming]

Hi, all
  Today, we enter into Hard Feature Freeze phase until edk2-stable201903 tag is created at 2019-03-08. In this phase, there is no feature to be pushed. The bug fix is still allowed. 

Thanks
Liming

Hi Liming,

I meant to ask you about permanent links to already released stable
tags, in the Wiki. For example, we have:

https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Notes#edk2-stable201903-tag

but we don't seem to have one for the previous stable tag
(edk2-stable201811). Which is strange because I remember that we
collected the changes for that release too, in the wiki.

... Ah, I see it now. The problem is with Wiki commit 63a756e8a134
("edk2 wiki: remove edk2-stable201811 tag planning in
EDK-II-Release-Planning", 2018-12-10). The content was removed completely.

For example, if I grep the wiki (currently at commit 664b82ca9684) for
"id=1213", there are no hits. That means people cannot learn (or make
references to) the fact, in the Wiki, that the edk2-stable201811 release
fixed TianoCore#1213.

In my opinion, we should rather move that kind of content to a permanent
Release Notes article in the Wiki.

Thanks
Laszlo

Hi Laszlo,

You can find the permanent release notes on https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II:
Under Stable Tags session: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable201811
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Planning is for Future Release and Tag Planning.

Thanks,

[Tian, Hot]

For this specific question from Laszlo, I do not have strong recommendation. Liming/Laszlo can work out a recommendation.
But looking at https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II, I do have recommendation to make UDK less prominent (e.g. remove "UDK Releases" section) as we've migrated to quarterly stable tag release model on edk2 master.

Well, I'm not sure if my suggestion is logical, but given that I was
staring at
<https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Planning>
when I got lost :) , I think it might help if the "current release
planning" page simply featured a link to "past releases".

The latter can be a standalone wiki page or even a section in a larger page.


Considering the sum of the currently available notes, the inconsistency
is that

- for the first tag we had ("edk2-stable201808"), we seem to offer no
notes (that's OK, we had just started back then);

- for the second tag ("edk2-stable201811"), the notes are at:

https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable201811

which was edited... I got no clue where (certainly not in the edk2-wiki);

- and for the upcoming tag, we have the notes at:

https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Notes#edk2-stable201903-tag

Thanks,
Laszlo

Re: [edk2-announce] Hard Feature Freeze starts from 2019-03-01(00:00:00 UTC-8) for edk2-stable201903

[Gao, Liming]

Laszlo:
  https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Notes is designed to include the change in this stable tag. After the stable tag is created, the contents will be moved to tag notes. This wiki will be clear. 
  
  All things in https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Planning are moved into the stable tag notes. We may keep the link to point to release tag note. 

Thanks

Re: [edk2-announce] Hard Feature Freeze starts from 2019-03-01(00:00:00 UTC-8) for edk2-stable201903

[Richardson, Brian]

I made some minor changes to the wiki to better emphasize the stable tag releases.

https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki 

https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II

Thank you all for the work on the latest release.
