New page

=== Thursday, May 3, 2012: KDE 4.7 Soft Feature Freeze ===
Trunk is frozen for feature commits that are not listed in the planned feature document. Only bugfixes and the code implementing the listed features are to be committed after this date. The feature list also closes today.

Features not already finished or not listed on the planned features page will have to wait until the next KDE SC release.

=== Thursday, May 10, 2012: KDE 4.7 Dependency Freeze ===
From this moment on it is not allowed to add new dependencies or bump dependencies versions. It is possible to get an exception for this. Post the patch to reviewboard and add the release-team as reviewer. We will check if the dependency is needed and is available on all platforms.

In other words: If you have a feature that requires a new dependency or a version of a dependency that is higher than currently checked for in the build system, you need to have committed this change before this date.

=== Thursday, May 17, 2012: KDE 4.7 Soft Message Freeze ===
All translated messages (GUI strings) are frozen on this date. Only previously untranslated strings or clear errors in strings can be fixed. No major new strings changes should be done. You cannot add new strings, if you really need one ask kde-i18n-doc for an exception. It is ok to remove strings. Exception: Artwork (try to keep the number of new strings low anyways). Exception: Typo fixes can be fixed until the Hard Message Freeze, but you have to mail kde-i18n-doc saying you made a typo fix change.

=== Thursday, May 17, 2012: KDE 4.7 Soft API Freeze ===
To allow the bindings people to have proper time to do their work in preparation to the final release, the API should now be mostly fixed. Changing API is allowed, but commits have to be cc'ed to the kde-bindings mailinglist. This is including older APIs and newly introduced libraries/APIs.

=== Thursday, May 17, 2012: KDE 4.7 Hard Feature Freeze ===
Trunk is frozen for all feature commits, even those listed in the planned feature document. Only bug fixes are allowed.

=== Thursday, May 24, 2012: KDE 4.7 Beta 1 Tagging ===

=== Monday, June 25, 2012: KDE 4.7 Tagging Freeze for Release Candidate 1 ===
During tagging freeze only compilation fixes for all platforms are allowed to be committed. Everything else (even showstopper fixes) *have* to be run through reviewboard, with the release-team and the affected maintainers as reviewer.

=== Monday, June 25, 2012: KDE 4.7 Hard API Freeze ===

=== Monday, June 25, 2012: KDE 4.7 Artwork and Bindings Freeze ===
All artwork is frozen on this date. No new artwork should be added. Existing artwork can continue to be tweaked and fixed.

No new additions to the language bindings, except optional bindings as permitting by the kde-bindings team.

=== Monday, June 25, 2012: KDE 4.7 Documentation Freeze ===
