To be carried out by: Ubuntu Release Manager
Goals:
- Inform users of a supported Ubuntu release of its imminent end-of-life and corresponding termination of maintenance and support
30 days prior to end of life:
Send EndOfLifeAnnouncement to ubuntu-announce, ubuntu-security-announce
- Notify Matthew Nuzum to post news item on website
Notify John Crawford to add news item to UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter
At end of life:
- Set release to OBSOLETE in Launchpad
update http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release and set the release to "Supported: 0" (mvo)
Get somebody with access to the Canonical wiki to update https://wiki.canonical.com/Support/UbuntuLifeCycles for Canonical support
Deactivate any milestones for the release. Look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/$releasename/+milestones
At some point (? how long?) after the EndOfLifeAnnouncement:
Archive the release on old-releases
- Move any images from cdimage.ubuntu.com to old-images and notify IS team for archival
Remove it from the archive
- Clear all packages from the partner repository for this release
