Freeze dates & release dates

[Ranganath Sunku]

Hello Maintainers,

Being new to this community, our team is looking to contribute few collectors to the codebase to be considered for upcoming releases. Going through wiki & milestones, there isnt clarity on release process.

Few questions to better help us plan our work:

• based on past releases, would it be right to assume 1.1 be in Nov/Dec 2020 while 1.2 be sometime April/May 2021?
• Is there a code freeze/feature freeze date that one should be aware of to ensure new feature requests are submitted adequately ahead of time

Your feedback will be helpful. Thanks

I meant to ask for Prometheus node_exporter in particular.

We only have a fixed release schedule for Prometheus itself. Exporter releases are cut by the maintainers as needed, depending on the changes merged.

There is no specific release schedule or cadence for the node_exporter. We release when there is sufficient need and or bug fixes are ready.

Thanks for the fast responses. 

Few questions to help understand this better:

• Seems like Prometheus releases and node_exporter releases are not correlated. However is it right to assume that what ever would be the latest version of node_exporter will be included in next Prometheus release?
• Would you announce few days ahead before you cut a release for node_exporter?

Thanks

Prometheus does not include node_exporter. They are completely separate. As long as you choose a version of node_exporter with a supported protocol, it will be compatible. The protocol has not changed since 2014.

• Would you announce few days ahead before you cut a release for node_exporter?

No, we announce after a release is available. When the changes warrant it, we do cut release candidates, like we do for Prometheus.

 

Thanks
