Hello

Is anyone interested in being the release lead for 2.346.1?

Planned dates can be seen on the event calendar: https://www.jenkins.io/events/#event-calendar

Release candidate by 18th May

Release on 1st June

The documentation is at:

https://github.com/jenkins-infra/release/blob/master/.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/1-lts-release-checklist.md

I'll be available to answer any questions and provide guidance (along with hopefully other past release leads)

We chat in #jenkins-release on libera IRC, https://www.jenkins.io/chat/#jenkins-release

Anyone interested?

Thanks

Tim

Would you be willing to consider a 2 week delay in that final release date, so that it would be June 15 rather than June 1?

The original scheduled date to select the LTS baseline was April 20, 2022.  We delayed that by a little less than 3 weeks so that we could assure that the selected LTS baseline had fewer open issues and good ratings.  We've had great results from that effort, but I still feel that we need three weeks to watch for issues in the selected baseline (2.346), then two weeks to test the release candidate.  That's removing one week from our usual pattern of four weeks from baseline selection to release candidate then two weeks from release candidate to release.

I acknowledge that the final decision on release date is best decided by you as the release officer.  I'm lobbying for the delay of the release date but fully accept that the decision is yours to make, not mine.  Thanks for being the Jenkins release officer and thanks so much for your contributions to Jenkins.

Sure, I've moved the release date 2 weeks out.

RC: 18th May

Release day: 15th June

Thanks for asking.  Just a request to delay the final release date so that we have time to test.

@Mark Waite to be clear were you asking for an RC delay as well or just the final release date?
