==Yocto Release Process==
Welcome to the Processes and Activities Page!
Steps to release Yocto:


Run an autobuilder "generate-release" build. This will create images in /srv/www/vhosts/autobuilder.pokylinux.org/generate-release/<datestamp>/. Rename these files with the appropriate release name and version (Scott will have a script to do this by the next release).
* [[Contribution Guidelines]]
 
* [[Recipe & Patch Style Guide]]
For post-Green releases, there will be a release staging area that will be used to mirror the output before the files are released on the public web site.
* [[Building your own recipes from first principles]]
 
* [[Development Best Practices]]
On release branch:
* [[Distro Tracking]]
* Set DISTRO_VERSION in poky.conf
* [[Best Known Methods (BKMs) for Package Updating]]
* Update handbook references to stable release (introduction.xml, master branch needs this too)
* [[Working Behind a Network Proxy]]
* Update version reference and updated date in handbook (poky-handbook.xml)
* [[QA]]
* git commit -a -m "Purple 3.2 Release"
* [[Kernel]]
* git tag -a purple-3.2 -m "Tag Purple 3.2"
* [[Core]]
* git archive purple-3.2 --prefix=purple-3.2/ | bzip2 > /tmp/poky-purple-3.2.tar.bz2 scp /tmp/poky-purple-3.2.tar.bz2 o- hand.com:/srv/www/pokylinux.org/releases/poky-purple-3.2.tar.bz2
* [[Bugzilla Configuration and Bug Tracking]]
On master branch:
* [[Bug Triage]]
* Set DISTRO_VERSION in poky.conf to new version
* [[Yocto Point-Release Development Workflow]]
* Update version reference and updated date in handbook (poky-handbook.xml)
* [[Yocto Release Engineering]]
 
* [[Performance]]
* cd handbook
* [[Security]]

==== Scott's Poky Green Notes ====
 
To avoid a mad scramble during the final hours before a release, things need to be spaced out more - there should be a 24-hour period where the images to be released are frozen, tested, and mirrored to the public web server. This would be a good time to write up the release announcement/blog posts, etc.
 
generate-release did not copy over the sato and sdk images because they were ext3 filesystems and the script was looking for files with a .ext2 extension.
 
There needs to be a sign-off process for the images, to ensure they have at least been booted and to check for silly errors (e.g, Richard pointed out the first time that I had used 3.2 in the image filenames when Green was 3.3)
