@tomootes, I agree with both points. Adding to the second: the need to update releaseDate every time results in either not updating it, or it becomes busywork that just annoys the maintainers and makes them roll their eyes at publiccode.yml
.
Having it optional makes it available to people who wanna opt-in for that.
@yaml-9000 minor-change
Thanks for your contribution :pray:
This is now marked as a minor-change
proposal to the standard,
this means that old versions of publiccode.yml
will still be valid with this change.
Example of minor changes are additions of new keys or making keys optional.
The Chair will eventually pick up this proposal and start the voting procedure using @yaml-9000 vote-start

I can't agree more on this one. In addition to this: if a project is using semver the last releasedate can easily be fetched from either Github or Gitlab. If we keep it mandatory this is going to be an extra chore for devs.
I updated the translations as well and rebased so the preview is successful.

Awesome to see the change has been accepted and is now part of the standard :pray:
As stated in the following thread. It would be logical to make the
releaseDate
key optional.Main reasons that can be coined for this are:
