Releasing

  1. Update CHANGELOG.md

  2. Tag the release and prepare for the next version with:

    $ ./new-version.sh --release-version X.Y.Z --next-version X.Y.Z

    Tip: Use --help to see script usage

  3. Visit CI to see the progress of the release! 🚀

  4. Visit sonatype to promote java artifacts

  5. Draft a new release using the release notes for X.Y.Z in step 1 as the release description:

Release Cadence

A release will be initiated on the 15th day of each month unless this falls on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday or US holiday, in which case the release will commence on the following business day.

Voting on Releases

Anyone may request a new release of the project in the #general Slack channel.

After one is proposed, committers have 48 hours to give a +1 or -1.

A total of three +1s, taking into account -1s and excluding votes by the proposer, authorize the release.

Alternatively, if after 2 days the release has received at least one +1 and no -1s, the release is also authorized.

If the proposed release receives no +1s in two days, it is not authorized and the proposer must make a new request to reset the clock.

Once a release is authorized, it will be initiated within two business days. Releases will not be made on a Friday unless doing so will address an important defect, an issue with project infrastructure, or a security vulnerability.
