Vimal, and list members As I said before, the release team members list is the one from http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Roles_for_3.14. I adjust the Release Manager to acknowledge Jared as 3.12's RM. People on the release announcement is people with current roles, voted 3rd April on the IRC meeting. As of 31 July I have already pushed a patch that acknowledges Vimal as LiveDVD maintainer during the 3.10-3.12 period [1], it appears in the "About" section in Koha, and will continue during the whole 3.12 lifecycle (this should be the patch Jared suggests).

Dear Jared,

Why Nguyen Quoc Uy name appeared in release notes of 3.12.3? In my knowledge Live DVD of 3.12.3 or 3.12.4 have not released yet.

I think the lack of synergy with the dev community is the root for this problems. Maybe Nguyen and you could be on IRC or arrange an IRC meeting and we could sort this out easily. As of me, your work is acknowledged by my patch. And feel comfortable about that. Regards To+ [1] http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blobdiff;f=koha-tmpl/intr...

Vimal, et. al.,

As Tomas stated last time, the release notes list the current members of the release team. As your term as livedvd manager ended several months ago, you are not a member of the current release team. You will notice that D. Ruth Bavousett and Elliott Davis are not currently listed either, despite having been members of the release team during the 3.12.

I would also note that there was a security release on the Koha 3.12.x branch last month. If your argument is not just that you released the livedvd for Koha 3.12.0 (which no one -- other than, apparently, you -- questions) but rather that you are the current maintainer of the Koha 3.12.x livedvd, your argument would be much-strengthened by releasing an updated version of the livedvd without the serious security flaw which was addressed in 3.12.3.

That said, I take no particular stance on this question, but I will point out that Koha is an open source project, and patches are always accepted. If you feel that your name should be listed in the release notes, submitting a patch that adds your name (and provides an explanation in the commit message about why this is necessary) would be a good idea.

Regards, Jared

Dear Friends, I don't know why Release Maintainer of Koha 3.12.x always forgot to give the exact name of Live DVD manager in release notes!!! http://koha-community.org/koha-3-12-4-released/

I once again request to Release Manager to read once more roles for 3.12 version. http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Roles_for_3.12

I would like to get the reputation as Live DVD Manager. Like any other members in developers community, I had burned lot of my time to create Koha Live DVD for 3.12 version.
