This document describes all the guidelines that have been agreed upon by the committers and PMC members on the mailing list.
COMMITTERS.rst contains the guidelines for adding a new Committer and promoting an existing Committer to a PMC member.
When voting on AIPs, both PMC members and committers have a binding vote. (Link)
The Airflow 1.10.x series will be supported for six months (June 17, 2021) from Airflow 2.0.0 release date (Dec 17, 2020). Specifically, only 'critical fixes' defined as fixes to bugs that take down Production systems, will be backported to 1.10.x until June 17, 2021.
Backport providers within 1.10.x, are not released any more, as of (March 17, 2021).
- Follow Semantic Versioning (SEMVER)
- Changing the version of dependency should not count as breaking change
- Release Manager would default to releasing Providers in Batch
- If there is a critical bug that needs fixing in a single provider, an ad-hoc release for that provider will be created
We will release all providers every month (Mostly first week of the month)
Note: that it generally takes around a week for the vote to pass even though we have 72 hours minimum period
When provider(s) has doc-only changes during batch-release, we will not release that provider with a new version. As unliked the actual releases, our doc releases are mutable.
So, we will simply tag that those providers with *-doc1, *-doc2 tags in the repo
to release docs for it.
