Symfony project follows a time-based development process where two new minor versions are released each year. The next minor version is 3.1 which will be released at the end of May.
According to the release process, the "stabilization phase", where we fix bugs and prepare the release, lasts for two months. This means that 3.1 has entered "feature freeze" and we won't add any other new feature to it.
Testing Symfony 3.1 before it's released
As of today, Symfony 3.1 doesn't have its own dedicated branch in the repository
(we'll do that when we get closer to the launch date). Therefore, if you have
any application running on Symfony 3.0, you can test the 3.1 version just by
switching your Symfony dependency to dev-master on your composer.json file.
How can you help us?
- The best way to help us it to test Symfony 3.1 in your real applications before it's released and report any issue you find.
- Check out the reported Symfony issues to verify or discard them.
- Review the proposed Symfony pull requests to fix or tweak the new features.
What's next?
- Stay tuned for the New in Symfony 3.1 blog series which we'll start publishing soon to explain the new features introduced in Symfony 3.1.
