Episode 5 of Radio Liferay is out. I'm speaking with Cynthia Wilburn,  Project Manager at Liferay, the engineering group's professional nag (short: Catherder) and single wringable neck for release dates. We recorded this episode right after Liferay's Westcoast Symposium in the L.A. office in the same room as the last episode with Ray - so we'll have the same echo. I hope you don't mind.

We spoke about these topics - and probably more:

• Cynthia was once mistaken as a Jira bot
• The Product Backlog maintained in Liferay's Jira
• Agile Plugin for Jira (formerly Greenhopper)
• Recommendations on how to file issues in Liferay's Issuetracker, so that they are taken care of.
• security issues and how to file them
• fixpacks and the new patchtool
• Marketplace
• Sevencogs Hook
• Social Office
• The Definitive Release Date (sic!) for the next version (no link, you'll have to listen ;-)
• The release philosophy
• A Releasecandidate planned for 14. Oct. 2011 (Sadly, due to intense work preparing the upcoming european symposium, I didn't manage to publish this before the 14. Oct. So after the fact, this has been relabelled a beta)
