release_schedule - Perl 5 release schedule
This schedule lists the projected or historical development and release schedules for the next, current and previous stable versions of Perl. Dates with two or more question marks will only be releases if deemed necessary by the Steering Council.
2023-07-01 5.38.0 ✓ Ricardo Signes 2023-??-?? 5.38.1
2022-05-27 5.36.0 ✓ Ricardo Signes 2023-04-23 5.36.1 ✓ Steve Hay
This schedule lists the release engineers for at least the next four months of releases of bleadperl. If there are fewer than four months listed as you make a release, it's important that you extend the schedule AND identify the next release engineer.
Before adding a release engineer, you must contact them and they must consent to ship the release.
When shipping a release, you should include the schedule for (at least) the next four releases. If a stable version of Perl is released, you should reset the version numbers to the next blead series.
