[GUSDEV] Gus Release Schedule

[Michael S. <msa...@pc...>]

All,

There are a sufficient number of issue fixes and new feature requests
pending for GUS that thinking about future releases is warranted.

(Note:  As you may recall, the App Framework and Schema were separated into
distinct projects/products following the 3.5 release.  GusSchema will retain
the 3.x series numbering.  GusAppFramework will use 1.x series numbers for
its release following the split.)

_GusSchema 3.5.1_

* Backwards compatible schema changes, such as increasing attribute
precision, creation of tables, addition of subclasses/views.

_GusSchema 3.6_

* Non-Backwards compatible schema changes, such as adding attributes,
deleting tables, etc.

_GusAppFramework 1.0_

* Bug Fixes
* Compatibility Changes
* New Features

***  As part of the planning for these releases, Schema Owners, bug
reporters, and GUS engineers should review the issues in the tracker that
they "own".  Every issue should be updated with the appropriate milestone
set.  Using GusSchema as an example:
    - upcoming patch: version 3.5.1
    - following patch:  version 3.5.2 or 3.6
    - upcoming release:  version 3.6
    - following release: version 3.7
    - near/far future release: > version 3.7

Once completed, a report of issue status for each release will be available:
