Now we're using feature branches, have a staging site, and a fairly stable GP, we can be much smarter about development.
There can now be a clear separation between development and release.
That's not to say that development and fixes will stop - but this group was set up to decide which fixes should be developed, the implementation and what should be released.
I'm going to leave it up to the community to decide how they determine what should be included in a release and release schedules. I'd like @Len (or someone else) to manage that. I come here to have fun. Being involved in decisions for the whole community is not my idea of fun.
1. This is going to be the GP dev game.
The job of this game will be to shape things for staging. To offer features, not decide on them.
We've deliberately avoided adding the more controversial stuff (like discord integration), but now we're able to implement those features and preview them on staging, we can leave it up to the community whether or not to choose them.
This game will be for the people who want to make changes, look at things on staging and discuss changes to implementation - but not deciding whether something should be included.
I'm going to make this game open to anyone with constructive ideas (and maybe even a few destructive ones too).
2. As I said, I'll leave it up to @Len and the community to decide how to decide what should be pulled from staging.
Sound sensible?
