Hi,

We plan to change the release policy for the LTS branch to release every Friday. Initially, we wanted to create a release for every logical patch that was merged. But, the release process consumes more cycles than anticipated, and we feel that there is an opportunity to fine-tune the policy.

This does not impact the speed at which the patches are merged to the LTS branch but reduces the release work. So, the patches will get merged as soon as all the requirements are satisfied, but the actual release (version bump, release notes, tag creation) will be done on a Friday.

Please let us know if there are any concerns with this approach.

Thanks.
