| | |
| == Purpose ==
| |
| The purpose of the KDE Release Team is to define and execute the official software releases of KDE.
| |
| | |
| The Release Team is responsible for setting release schedules for the official KDE releases. This includes release dates, deadlines for individual release steps and restrictions for code changes.
| |
| | |
| The Release Team coordinates release dates with the marketing and press efforts of KDE.
| |
| | |
| == Members ==
| |
| The Release Team is composed of Module Coordinators, Marketing Team liaison (sebas), and the people who actually do the work of tagging and creating the releases (dirk).
| |
| | |
| As is our tradition, decision making is an open and public process and we welcome input from all concerned parties, including our partners, the packagers, and the distros.
| |
| | |
| == Contact ==
| |
| Please contact the Release Team by [mailto:[email protected] email] or join our public [https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team mailing list]. | |

| * The 4.0 branch is in bugfixing mode, preparing for 4.0.1 to be tagged by the end of Jan 2008
