[Ubuntugnome-qa] [Proposal] Release Page

[Bruce Pieterse <dev@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I was wondering if we should setup a similar page like https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases. I realised that when replying to bugs that have been reported against an EOL release, I use the canned response from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Release_has_reached_End_of_Life_.28EOL.29 and it points to the above link. Some considerations on why I am proposing this is:

1. Ubuntu GNOME LTS releases are 3 years, not 5 years as mentioned at the bottom of the page
2. EOL releases should start at 13.04 as this was an official release.
3. Current list of releases should drop 10.04 to 12.04.5 LTS
4. Do we have an announcement mailing list? If not, the announcement list should point to the main mailing list.
5. Old releases can point to the Ubuntu GNOME old releases page if we have one.

I'm not sure if we have a general cycle blueprint, which is essentially what things that need to always be updated before, during and after a cycle is complete, that we can add the above task to if accepted.

THanks
