Hello,

Per Process for aliases, auto-connections and tracks 2, we need a 1-week voting/discussion period, so I’ll check back on the discussion and votes in a few days.

I have three questions before casting my vote.

  1. What’s sdcore-upf’s release cadence, how often is a new major version (potentially requiring a new track) released? Is this documented somewhere by upstream?
  2. Is there some commitment from upstream on maintenance of old versions?
  3. Are new versions backwards-incompatible? Meaning, if I was running 1.4 and try to install 1.5, will that just work, or do I need to migrate my data/configuration, or will things break horribly?

Thanks,

Odysseus

Hello @odysseus-k ,

  1. The sdcore-upf will be released with the same cadence as the upstream project (ref here). It’s not regular cadence though, but I would say around 1-2 minor releases per year, each of which will require a new track.

  2. Upstream does not commit on maintaining old versions, though automated dependency updates will be made.

  3. For minor version changes (ex. 1.4->1.5), we should expect them to be backwards compatible.
