Yet again, ToriOS 1.0 Milestones

 

Hi everyone,

Looking at this table:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/ReleaseSchedule

You will notice these milestones:

1. Alpha 1
2. Alpha 2
3. Beta 1
4. Beta 2
5. RC (Release Candidate)


https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseCandidate

From my humble personal opinion, from my understanding after spending 5 years with Ubuntu (and flavors) testing, I think (and I could be wrong) that RC = Release Candidate = is the final milestone for the release cycle when the software/system is 99%-100% ready to be released and all what is needed to be done is 'final' testing.

That said, calling the latest build a Release Candidate (RC) is a bad move, IMHO.

While I admit I have very limited time to spare for anything beside Real Life, ToriOS is a child that I care about a lot so if none of you have any objection, may I please be in charge of the release and the milestone, etc? all what is required is: I test the latest build and then discuss with Israel whether to call it a milestone (Alpha, Beta, RC) or just a daily build? I am sure I have explained that before but I hope you don't mind and you may consider this as a gentle reminder :)

If you doubt my QA skills, I can prove you wrong :P hehe just kidding :D

Let me know what do you think? what I am asking here is very very simple and less confusing to everyone!

Thank you!
