+1 Having a brach for the release will also provide us to release z stream release from the branch created to cover any CVEs or critical bugs.
@kubeflow/release-team @rimolive during last KF biweekly meeting 2024-09-30, a question was raised whether we "have to" keep the -alpha
suffix also for the container images: https://hub.docker.com/r/kubeflow/model-registry/tags?name=v0
after all, they start with v0.
and we document we're in Kubeflow Alpha designation per resources above:
- Model Registry is still Alpha:
- as highlighted in the website,
- and on the Model Registry Python client readme
what are your thoughts, please?
Historically, component owners in past Kubeflow releases used both ways. The Katib team used not only the -alpha
suffix but also what I believe is the commit hash that image was built into.
On the other hand, Pipelines team decided on a different approach by just tagging images with their respective version without include alpha or beta in the image tag.
I think the most important action here is how the message about the alpha status for Model Registry is clear and transparent to the users. We've been talking about the alpha status in many community meetings, we wrote a blog post, and the documentation makes it clear that MR is still under alpha.
That said, I'm okay to just use the version without the -alpha
suffix in the image tags since the message here is clear: We'll reach final or GA only when image tags reach 1.0.0
.
+1 for that. This will become useful for CVEs and backporting of critical issues.
with 0.2.8-alpha, I've seized the chance to test the release branch strategy from the original https://github.com/kubeflow/model-registry/issues/435#issue-2556426644
with 0.2.9, I've seized the chance to further progress on the release branch strategy from the original https://github.com/kubeflow/model-registry/issues/435#issue-2556426644

Collected the experience from the previous periodic releases of Model Registry so far: https://github.com/kubeflow/model-registry/releases
the following small changes are being proposed, to go into effect at the next feasible periodic release:
release/v0.2.x-alpha
