I looked at https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases#Release_Activity but such information is not available. Is such information available on any public page? I believe that's important to make such information easier to find, because it is important for project management. It could be on the releases page or in the documentation itself, or even better, on both. Don't hesitate to re-assign this bug under the "Documentation" category. Thanks in advance Michael. 91163 1 randy.macleod 2021-08-12 14:37:16 +0000 Best to spread that info around to: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases and other places. 91167 2 michael.opdenacker 2021-08-12 14:53:28 +0000 Added details about expected EOL dates for current releases to https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases#Release_Activity However, I still believe the website release pages and/or documentation should still include such information. 92738 3 michael.opdenacker 2022-03-08 10:17:00 +0000 Actually, something useful would be to add the EOL information to our "Downloads" page. This way, people would immediately see until when each release is support and this would help to make a choice. This way, instead of proposing in the "RELEASE" dropdown menu: YP Core - Honister 3.4.2 - 2022.02.20 YP Core - Hardknott 3.3.5 - 2022.03.02 YP Core - Gatesgarth 3.2.4 - 2021.05.17 YP Core - Dunfell 3.1.14 - 2022.02.16 YP Core - Zeus 3.0.4 - 2020.08.21 We would have: YP Core - Honister 3.4.2 - 2022.02.20 - Supported until 2022.05 YP Core - Hardknott 3.3.5 - 2022.03.02 - Supported until 2022.03 YP Core - Gatesgarth 3.2.4 - 2021.05.17 - No longer supported YP Core - Dunfell 3.1.14 - 2022.02.16 - Supported until 2024.04 YP Core - Zeus 3.0.4 - 2020.08.21 - No longer supported However, looking at the corresponding page in WordPress, I haven't found where such information is taken from. Nico, do you know how? What do you think? By the way, do we still need to propose downloads for no longer supported releases? Thanks in advance Michael. 92739 4 michael.opdenacker 2022-03-08 10:26:55 +0000 Here's the link to our "Downloads" page: https://www.yoctoproject.org/software-overview/downloads/ 92744 5 randy.macleod 2022-03-08 21:12:35 +0000 FYI, 3.3.5 was just released and there is a 3.3.6 in ~ April, 2022. https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases 92745 6 michael.opdenacker 2022-03-08 21:23:43 +0000 Good to know, thanks! I extended support for Hardknott until April in the Releases page, then. 100003 7 randy.macleod 2024-10-24 15:03:57 +0000 Bulk move of 5.1 M4 to 5.2 M2 as approved by AlexB. 101603 8 antonin.godard 2025-04-10 12:33:42 +0000 Correct me if I'm wrong but now we should be ok with regards to the EOL dates on the different locations: - On the YP Documentation, this is maintained notably here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/release-process.html#long-term-support-releases - On the wiki (https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases) the "Support level" column states the EOL date. - On the YP website (https://www.yoctoproject.org/development/releases) the "Status" column states the EOL date. Can we close this bug, or am I missing something? 101604 9 michael.opdenacker 2025-04-10 12:54:29 +0000 Hi Antonin I agree. Closing this bug. Thanks!
