extended release schedule

Jody Garnett edited this page Apr 11, 2015 · 7 revisions

Description

Change to the release schedule:

  • Drop back to releasing every other month
  • extend the release schedule with a 6 month maintenance phase

This results in two release branches (stable and maintenance), we will still release every month - alternating between these two branches as appropriate. GeoTools updates will be less frequent, and will be available longer.
