Revision as of 13:13, 11 October 2018

This page contains the planned release schedule for Plasma 5.

Frameworks tags on first Sat of the month and release on following Saturday.

Releases are every 4 months (3 times a year). Plasma .0 tags on Thursday following Frameworks release and release on following Tuesday. Beta tag/release on Thursday 3 weeks before and Repo freeze 5 weeks before. Bugfix tag/releases are on Tuesdays after .0 release in a Fibonacci sequence of weeks, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 after initial.

This schedule is our best guess at this point, in case the quality is not deemed good enough before the final release, it is subject to revision.

All deadlines are due midday UTC, but if you need a few more hours, notify someone from the release team.
