Release Proposal: v4.2.2 "Argon" (LTS) #3588
Conversation
Note that there are no new features. As an LTS release, this contains patch, doc and test updates only. It should be a drop in replacement for v4.2.1 and everything should just work. Please notify of any regressions as soon as possible. |
Additional commits we need to look at for release:
There are additional PR's on the watch list that have not yet landed: https://github.com/nodejs/node/labels/lts-watch-v4.x |
@thealphanerd ... not that I'm aware of but I don't use nvm that much |

These commits seem like candidates too, two test commits and the rest are docs. My thought behind including all the docs ones, including things like changing AUTHORS.md, and COLLABORATOR_GUIDE.md is that it'll make it much easier down the road if we ever need to update them given that they'll match master. Up for debate though of course.

If we're aiming for early next week then we're pushing it a little on our new "commits should be in a stable release already" rule since v5.0.0 just went out with all of the commits included here. They'll be in the wild over the weekend but I wouldn't be upset if this release took its time. |
Sorry for spamming this PR, but @jasnell I wanted to let you know I've added experimental
I'll also end up adding |
@rvagg ... yep, which is another reason for going the v4.2.2-rc.1 route yesterday. The challenge is the timing of v5.0 release -- I'd been hoping it would have gotten out sooner ;-) |
@rvagg ... I'd likely break them down this way: Should Land:
Optional:

@rvagg ... ok, pushed the checked items from your list above for v4.2.2. The rest I would consider entirely optional and ok to leave out for now. |
@rvagg ... how about this: so we don't rush this out too quickly, let's do a RC2 build on Monday and give it another day or two of testing. We can do the actual release either later in the day Tuesday or Wednesday. That'll give at least another few days to see if there are any new regressions |
RC2 build running now - https://ci.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/248/ |
sorry for late response @jasnell but I'm +1 on all your comments above |
Given that no regressions have been reported and the commits that have landed also in v5.0.0 appear to be good with no obvious new regressions there, I'll be moving ahead with the v4.2.2 release later on today. I'll kick off the build around noon pacific. /cc @nodejs/collaborators @nodejs/lts |
