Scheduling your open source project

SeaGL 2020

You can’t release on time if you don’t know what “on time” means. This talk covers several ways to build release schedules for projects — calendar-based, feature-based, and “meh, it’s done I guess”. Attendees will learn what considerations should go into planning a release schedule, how to deal with exceptions. It will also cover some tools that can be used to give the schedule a physical representation.
