Development - How a release is generated

[Overview] [Versioning] [How a Release is generated]

After some time, if there are enough changes in the code and if we have enough spare time, we generate a Beta-Branch from the actual developer version (trunk).

This will happen, may be, every 3 month or so, but please don't bother us. br />
This Beta will be uploaded as Beta openphpnuke-2.5.2 only for Beta-Tester to our public testservers after an internally review.

Reported bugs will be fixed in this branch and if necessary merged to the actual branch (trunk).

After sufficant tests (may be 2-3 weeks) the betabranch will be renamed to releasebranch and a release tag will be generated..

Using the release tags as base, an official version will be generated and published.

If there are bugs after the publishing, these wil be fixed in the releasebranch and then merged in the trunk.

Depending on the amount and heaviness of bugs we will generate directly or after some time a bug fix release tag. Upon this base a new version - and if possible - a new patch will be generated.
