Hi developers,
TL;DR: the 3.27.90 tarball deadline is extended until next Monday
The release team is still learning how to get by in a BuildStream
world. It turns out that nobody who is currently available knows how to
generate release tarballs using BuildStream. Many developers, notably
Tristan, are traveling from FOSDEM and unavailable at the moment. I've
been discussing with Javier, and we're both kind of lost as to what to
do. If you've already released a tarball, you must have done so either
using host dependencies, which doesn't work for modules that depend on
new stuff, or with JHBuild. We think it's important to actually be able
to release all modules without using JHBuild, and we'll need a couple
days to figure this out, and you all surely deserve at least one
weekend after that before tarballs are due, so let's extend the 3.27.90
tarball deadline until at least next Monday. Expect more development
schedule change announcements as we figure out what we're doing.
Thanks for your patience throughout this big transition,
Michael
