Feature freeze (May 13th, 2024):

  • Ensure all expiring language deprecations have been removed or given new removal dates.
  • Create and merge version updating pull requests in Math/Stan/Cmdstan. These should be the last PRs accepted before the freeze.
  • Create Math/Stan RC releases.
  • Create Stanc3 RC binary.
  • Create a release candidate tarball for x86. Make sure RC tarballs include stanc3 binaries.
  • Check external links in docs (i.e. TBB docs link) - use https://github.com/tcort/markdown-link-check
  • Create a release candidate feature/bugfix list (major features/bugfixes that need testing, link to new docs in Github)
  • Run CmdStanR tests with the RC tarball.
  • Run CmdStanPy tests with the RC tarball.
  • Make a Discourse RC post.
  • Post a tweet with a link to the Discourse RC post.

Release (June 3rd, 2024):

  • Create the Math Release notes.
  • Create the Stan Release notes.
  • Create the Cmdstan Release notes.
  • Create the Stanc3 Release notes, include new deprecations and removals.
  • Rebuild and publish docs for the new version.
  • Check that docs for the previous release links correctly to the newest docs.
  • Create the Math release.
  • Create the Stan release.
  • Create the Stanc3 release.
  • Create x86 CmdStan tarballs (check version, check that the extracted folder is in the cmdstan-version format).
  • Create non-x86 CmdStan tarballs.
  • Run CmdStanR tests with the release tarball.
  • Make a Stan blog release announcement post (thank the sponsors and all contributors, mention new devs).
  • Link to the blog post in a Discourse thread.
  • Make a Twitter announcement.

Good morning @WardBrian, I don't see anything pending in the discourse thread nor here. I will start shortly with the RC.

Hi @serban-nicusor-toptal - unfortunately I immediately found an issue - see #1270

Additionally, the stanc in the tarballs of rc1 reports the wrong version (it seems like stanc3 is missing a rc tag/build?)

@serban-nicusor-toptal

Ah, I thought for stanc3 we'll just use nightly.
I will tag it 2.35.0-rc1 in just a moment so it start building then I will redo the tarballs.

I will merge #1270 as soon as its tests pass and then you can do another set of tars

Been a while since we had an rc2, I think.

@serban-nicusor-toptal Merged, can re-tarball when you get a chance

Preliminary (lightly edited) release notes here: https://gist.github.com/WardBrian/0791d82cfde4044a4b9c78aaf91f7c84

Properly tagged stanc3 binaries currently building here https://jenkins.flatironinstitute.org/blue/organizations/jenkins/Stan%2FStanc3/detail/v2.35.0-rc1/1/pipeline
I'll fix RC1 tarballs when that will finish building.
I'm waiting before I do RC2 for cmdstan

Ok, #1271 should be in rc2, I think.

CmdStanpy tests are normal. @andrjohns @jgabry can you comment on the cmdstanr tests? https://github.com/stan-dev/cmdstanr/actions/runs/9069238610/job/24918334234

@serban-nicusor-toptal just a heads up, we will want a resolution to stan-dev/stan#3285 before any release. Depending on what we decide we may even want another round of RCs, so probably ~May 28 for the actual release at this point

@serban-nicusor-toptal I think we are ready for another round of RCs tomorrow. Would you mind running them in the morning?

Unfortunately we need new RCs for everything:

  • math: v4.9.0-rc2
  • stan: v2.35.0-rc2
  • stanc3: v2.35.0-rc2
  • cmdstan: v2.35.0-rc3

Thanks @serban-nicusor-toptal!

I'm going to discuss when we'd like to do the official release with some other team members a bit later and get back to you.

@serban-nicusor-toptal We decided to wait until the next non-US-holiday Monday, so we'd like to release on Monday, June 3rd

Hi @serban-nicusor-toptal - it seems like cmdstan-2.35.0-rc3.tar.gz is missing stan-dev/math#3077 in the math submodule included in the tarball.

Would you mind producing a new one?

Not at all! They're up now @WardBrian

@serban-nicusor-toptal great!

I think everything is looking good on the git side of things. We still need to make the develop -> master merges at some point
