Calligra/Schedules/2.4/Release Plan
See also: Feature Plan, Quality Control
Note
For this release, we aim at making Calligra ready for users. We will start making a plan for beta and final releases once the feautres mark for user-readiness in the Feature Plan are implemented, for the time being, we will make monthly snapshots release for people interesting in watching the progress.
Freezes
Soft Freeze, August 31th, 2011
No more features in master. Features in master are restricted to features discussed before hand and that can justify to be necesserary for user readiness.
It is worthwhile to remember that while new features are allowed in the beta cycle, it should be the exception, not the norm.
String Freeze, October 12th, 2011
Any changes to a string needs to be discussed with the translation teams (except for typo that are bug fix and you only need to ping the translation teams). It also means no new features can be added.
