Release Checklist 8.0 - racket/racket GitHub Wiki

Although github has a nifty syntax for checking the boxes below, you should probably just go ahead and delete the items, rather than check them off; it's much easier to see what remains to be done when everything else is simply not there.

Testing

  • {Robby Findler [email protected]}

    • Release tests for the Windows release:
      • Test that the binary installers for both work.

Blockers (Don't delete when finished)

  • package regressions

    • quickscript... Laurent surprised by new #%app arrows pointing to zero-width snips, but says (2021-02-01 email) that it shouldn't affect the release.
  • doc commits? (mostly picked)

  • odbc bug fix from ryan: matthew, robby, sam all say okay. Picked, some tests not passing?

  • windows smartscreen showing a blue warning box on install. Microsoft response to submission appears to suggest buying an EV certificate.

  • release notes trumpets

  • release notes sperber (matthias rewrite)
