Next: snapd 2.25

With snapd 2.24 almost ready this page starts the planning for the 2.25 release.

The follow changes are planned for this release https://forum.snapcraft.io/tags/upcoming

The aliases support is in flight right now, we need to land all new aliases branches tagged “critical” and “2.25” as a minimum required for 2.25. Unfortunately our usual mantra of “master is always releasable” is not holding true for a very short time (until those branches are in).

The following changes were perfomed in this release:

@mvo When you’re back, can we please have a call to talk about the proposed post-Trello task workflow.

Related to gadget config defaults: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/3171

can I be part of this conversation so we do things similarly?

@mvo Let’s please make sure these comments on the Xauthority PR by @morphis get addressed in a follow up PR before 2.25 goes out. If this is the only thing blocking the release, it’d be okay to just revert the PR and remerge later with the fixes.

Submitted the PR at https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/3244 yesterday. @mvo approved and it is ready to be merged when no further comments are made.
