Ok. let's triage 0.2.7 having this time frame in mind. Maybe it would be good to leave some 'capacity' for items that might be added along the way, so we can add feature requests or bugs if they come up. On 03/16/2015 10:45 AM, Mike Perry

After more consideration of all of them, given that these next few months will be spent mostly doing rebase work, I think either Option 2 or Option 4 above seem like the best plan. The only reason we should *need* new Tor features during the FF38 rebase effort is if the pluggable transports decide they need new Tor features in that timeframe. In fact, better PT support/fixes were the reason for most/all of our previous round of tor patch backports. Otherwise, we would just be including Tor 0.2.7 for more testing exposure. If the tor-core folks are fine waiting a bit longer before 0.2.7 sees a TBB release, I think it's fine for us to wait, too.Okay. Under this plan, when would we expect the first TBB alphas including 0.2.7 to come out? Some time in late august, or some time even later than that?It largely depends on how well the rebase goes. The safe estimate is mid to late August. If things go really well, we may be ready for an alpha sooner. Conceivably, we could even release a FF38-based TBB before the August 11th EOL, in which case we may be ready for an alpha series even earlier, but so far we've never moved that quickly. |
