8.2.1 Planning and process page - Take 2 Gregorio 19:29, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

This release will be defined when someone starts an "Unscheduled software release process" per the link below:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Unscheduled_software_release_process

Unlike previous releases, the 8.2.x buildstream will be accepting changes only when there is a champion willing to argue for a change as being necessary for a deployment or G1G1 scenario. That champion will start the ECO process, and will work with the triage team to determine the severity of the problem, whether an acceptable workaround exists, and if we should fix the problem in an 8.2 build or a 9.1 build. We will be unlikely to accept changes that do not have a champion, or are not considered blocking bugs for deployment scenarios.
