tranSMART Roadmap

This wiki entry describes the tranSMART Foundation’s release policies for the tranSMART Platform.

Release planning is coordinated through the tranSMART Foundation’s JIRA database.   For ideas about what you might contribute to the platform and roadmap, please see the “Project Suggestions” and “How to Contribute” pages.

Release Numbering

The official tranSMART Foundation tranSMART releases are numbered in the form of releaseyear.number.  That is, for the first release of 2016, the release number is 16.1.  The second release for 2016 is 16.2, etc.  Releases are planned every 6 months.

Release Process

The tranSMART platform is on an overlapping six month development / six month release cycle, which will result in a new release every six months.  Thus, the Foundation has an active development cycle AND an active release cycle running at all times.  For a release, a branch date is selected for the release

  1. In the slide with the title "Development and Release Roadmap" - with the time line - what is the correspondence between the "old" version numbers and the "new" version numbers. That is, 1.2.5 maps to 16.2? 1.3 maps to 16.2?

  2. Terry,

    The roadmap defines a series of projects - these projects are referred to by the projected release timing.  Thus, the 16.1 project is moving toward a release in the first half of 2016, while the 16.2 project is moving toward a release in the second have of 2016.  We are working on an overlapping development and release cycle, such that we are always running a development project AND a release project, but they are for two different releases.

    In terms of naming the releases, we have seen a lot of confusion in the community regarding version numbers.  Thus, we are moving to a discussion where each official tranSMART Foundation release is referred to by its project number (e.g., 16.1), and a unique name.  If others build releases based upon these, they should use a different naming convention, so that their release is not confused with a tranSMART Foundation official release.  We will also be implementing a release signing process, so that official Foundation releases will be uniquely identified with a digital signature that verifies the source of that release being from the Foundation.  We have continued to use the 'old' release terminology along with the new terminology, so that people can see the relationship between the two.

    Best,

    Keith

     

  3. To see project names in the roadmap is nice - but will not help a lot. The delivery of each project this is interesting. In this case it should be the transmart release/version I think

  4. Does this help Heike?
