Revision as of 17:22, 20 March 2019
For each WTP release, there are a few bookkeeping tasks unrelated to planning, development, and building, that also need tending to.
They should be recorded here so they're not forgotten. This is intended as a living document.
Contents
Tasks for Major and Minor Releases
- The release should be tagged in all non-releng repositories.
- Maintenance branch may created for future adopter patch builds. Main development will continue in master for the next quarterly simultaneous release.
- A New Help for Old Friends page created, if required
Tasks for All Releases (including Service Releases)
- Copy last RCx to R using WTP Publish job
- R-build GA'd on http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/, and email sent out declaring it
- EPP packages tested, signed-off on, and webmaster notified to show them on https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/eclipse-packages
