Well, before to work further, could core team announce how they think release protocol should be, as asked before ???
We have set a proposal in this forum, what does core team think about????

Sorry, missed your post until now.

The XOOPS Core development team announces a release with details on what areas in particular need testing.
The testing team can then test the release for some time (how long would depend on the release, I think, but we are talking days, not weeks)
Feedback should go through the sf.net trackers as usual. It is a tried-and-tested method that we are comfortable with.
When testing has proceeded for the specified time, the core development team gets back to work - or prepares the final release, depending on the feedback.

Anything missing?
