+ +Action | Expected | Actual | Description | +
Reminder announcement | 01 Dec 2001 | 03 Dec 2001 | +Release Engineers send announcement email to + developers@FreeBSD.org with a rough schedule for the FreeBSD 4.5 + release. | +
4.5-PRERELEASE | +20 Dec 2001 | +20 Dec 2001 | +newvers.sh, param.h, and release.ent updated. | +
FTP site updated | +20 Dec 2001 | +20 Dec 2001 | +pkg_add -r works for 4.5-PRERELEASE machines. | +
Code freeze begins | +20 Dec 2001 | +20 Dec 2001 | + +After this date, all commits to the RELENG_4 branch + must be approved by re@FreeBSD.org. Certain highly + active documentation committers are exempt from this rule for + routine man page / release note updates. Heads-up emails + should be sent to the developers@, stable@, and qa@ lists. | +
Commercial software demos updated. | +05 Jan 2002 | +24 Jan 2002 | +The second disc contains commercial software demos, these + demos should be updated to contain the latest versions. | +

Announce the Ports Freeze | +09 Jan 2002 | +09 Jan 2002 | +Someone from portmgr should email + freebsd-ports@ and CC: developers@ to set a date + for the tagging of the ports tree. Will set this date at January + 22nd. | +
Heads up to hubs | +09 Jan 2002 | +09 Jan 2002 | +A message should be sent to + freebsd-hubs@FreeBSD.org before the release is uploaded. The + site administrators have frequently requested advance notice for + new ISOs. | +
First release candidate | +09 Jan 2002 | +09 Jan 2002 | +The first release candidate for the x86 and Alpha architecture is + released. ISO images should be uploaded to + ftp-master.freebsd.org and + releng4.freebsd.org. A network install directory should + be uploaded to ftp-master.freebsd.org. The + packages and XF86336 directories may be + symlinked to save space, as long as you're sure to use + relative symlinks. + |
Heads up to -stable | +09 Jan 2002 | +09 Jan 2002 | +A message should be sent to qa@FreeBSD.org and + stable@FreeBSD.org after the release is uploaded. | +

Ports tree frozen. | +22 Jan 2002 | +22 Jan 2002 | +CVSROOT/avail locks out everyone but the person who + does the tagging. It will take approximately 2 hours to tag the + entire ports tree with the RELEASE_4_5_0 tag. After + this time, the ports/ tree will be re-opened for commits, but + commits made after tagging will not go in 4.5-RELEASE. | +
Final package build starts + | 22 Jan 2002 | +22 Jan 2002 | +The ports cluster and bento + build final packages. | +
