We don't have a fixed release schedule, and no release plans have been discussed on the developers mailing list (https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@tinkerpop.apache.org) so I don't have any specific dates to give. We typically see 3-4 releases per year, so by historical metrics we are definitely due for a release soon.
We typically try to do pairs of releases together (ie 3.7.3 and 3.6.8 released together), and with the 3.6 line being closed, we would typically align 3.7.4 with 3.8.0. There has been a lot of work going into 3.8.0 recently but I don't think it's quite done yet. My preference would is to wait another month or two to finish off 3.8.0 and then run both releases together, however it is definitely possible to release 3.7.4 on it's own sooner.
Are there any specific changes or features in 3.7.4 which you are currently waiting for?
The best platform to push for an earlier release would be a discussion on the dev maillist (https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/current/dev/developer/#_mailing_list_participation)
Oh hey @Kyle, I wasn't paying attention to who was asking, I presume you're looking to get your websocket improvements released.
I plan to propose a release on the devlist in a month or two if nobody has done so yet. If you want something sooner than that then please raise it on the devlist. The main hurdle is that someone will need to volunteer as a release manager, which is unfortunately a non-trivial effort at the moment which is why we typically try to batch the releases.
Just checking in, if you’re planning to propose a release on the dev list soon?
Hi, Cole posted a message on the dev list about 3.7.4 code freeze on July 16th
Just a snippet from the msg:
I would like to aim to initiate code freeze on 3.7-dev on July 25 if there are no objections. Please let me know any thoughts you have on this release timeline as well as if there are any outstanding issues you are working on which you would like included in the release.
