The wiki had gitdm-generated release statistics starting with v1.3.0. Re-generate this information as Sphinx. This aims to be as historically accurate as possible and so some company renames were kept to their old rather than current name until we had made the switch previously.

Release Cycle
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The U-Boot projects attempts to maintain a fixed, predictable Release
|
|
Cycle as follows:
|
|
|
|
* We will have U-Boot releases at a fixed release interval of (approximately)
|
|
every 3 months.
|
|
|
|
* Under normal conditions the release date will be the first Monday of the month.
|
|
|
|
* Immediately following each release, there will be a "merge window" of
|
|
normally 21 days, i. e. if the release was on a Monday, then the merge window
|
|
will close on the Monday in the 3rd week after the release.
|
|
|
|
While this merge window is open, new features can be added to the U-Boot
|
|
source tree. This is further expanded on in the :doc:`process`.
|
|
|
|
* After the merge window closes, no new features may be added to allow for a
|
|
release candidate phase which is intended to fix bugs and regressions.
|
|
|
|
*Note:* While we try to adhere to the release schedule, we will
|
|
not hesitate and take the liberty to delay a release if there are
|
|
good reasons, for example if there are known bugs or other technical
|
|
reasons. The code will be released when it is considered ready
|
|
without caring too much about the announced deadline.
|
|
|
|
*Note 2:* Even though we follow Linux ways in many respects, there are
|
|
differences in the actual procedures, which are documented in the
|
|
:doc:`process`.
|
|
|
|
Version Numbers
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Starting with the release in October 2008, the names of the releases were
|
|
changed from numerical release numbers without deeper meaning into a time stamp
|
|
based numbering. Regular releases are now identified by names consisting of
|
|
the calendar year and month of the release date. Additional fields are
|
|
frequently used to denote the release candidates. They are also used on rare
|
|
occasions to note a bug fix release on top of the previous stable release.
|
|
|
|
Examples::
|
|
|
|
U-Boot v2009.11 - Release November 2009
|
|
U-Boot v2009.11.1 - Bug fix release 1 on top of the November 2009 release
|
|
U-Boot v2010.09-rc1 - Release candidate 1 for September 2010 release
|
|
|
|
