Eduard,
No, it will likely be expedited... But I'm not personally going to look for more backports ATM. 0.92 being released will not be a super fast process even if jumped on right away... blockers usually aren't fixed quickly since they're not generally trivial. I would focus your efforts on trunk at this point though.

Just one thing for clarification: 0.91.x is cancelled then, right?
Just so we can stop wasting effort on an inactive branch...

0.91 was the first time we had an experimental branch, but I'm not against it again.
I would also like to hear from Jabier if he thinks something is a review away from inclusion this cycle or if he thinks it's better to defer his branches for 0.92.

OK, this all sounds very promising. Unfortunately, I won't be available to join in the IRC meeting tomorrow, but by the sounds of things, we're not awaiting any new urgent feature additions. Can I suggest, therefore, that we move into Feature Freeze as soon as possible, and concentrate on bug fixing ready for release? As in previous cycles, we could start an experimental branch for features that can wait until after 0.92.

I've worked with SUV for the past half dozen years or so on figuring out release blocker stuff. I'm willing to take it on even if there is no interest on SUV's end to help determine such things. I will draft a

Bryce for your review and edits and I will begin reviewing for blocker
bugs
in the tracker after that.
Cheers, Josh

(or is this just convenient discussion space?)
Yes, it is not the board's duty to make developer decisions. But I think the board does have the responsibility to aid (and prod) the developers to make decisions when needed as well as to support the execution of those decisions (e.g. fund a dedicated hackfest).
(it is also a convenient discussion space)
You're both right, and I do agree that having a meeting to get things going with the release is a great idea.
Traditionally we've often encouraged non-board-specific technical discussions to happen immediately following the board meeting. What if we had a short board meeting for say 20-30 min, and then a second followup meeting specifically to focus on release coordination discussions?
Sounds like we've crested the hill on the cmake work (we still need to do a comparison between the automake-generated dist and the cmake dist, to see if we're missing anything important). Once we're comfortable with what's in the dist, I can cut an alpha release - possibly as early as this weekend. I'm prepared to do a series of (bi-weekly?) pre-releases as we work towards the final release. Next step would be to start gathering a list of release blockers and recruit owners for getting those items examined; I would love it if someone could
volunteer
to coordinate/manage the release blocker bugfixing work.
