Quality expectations

Every commit - must ...

Build under Linux - using multiple versions of gcc (4.8 ... 7.3) and clang (4.0.1)
Build under Windows (this is currently a requirement that cannot be verified externally)
Pass ULTs for all supported platforms
Pass clang-format check with the configuration contained within repository
Pass clang-tidy check with the configuration contained within repository
Pass sanity testing (test content recommendation for the external community will be provided in the future)

Once a week, we run extended cycle on a selected driver. When the extended cycle passes, the corresponding commit on github is tagged (e.g. "2018ww08"). Such version is considered recommended for the community use ("latest good")
For selected weekly tags, we may choose to release binaries (deb, rpm, tarball) - those will usually be considered a Beta driver.

For major driver releases, OpenCL driver is expected to be bundled with Media and/or MESA drivers. Cadence and timeline will be coordinated with our OTC colleagues.
The driver releases (weekly/monthly/quarterly) will then be bundled with software products (Intel(R) Computer Vision SDK, Intel(R) SDK for OpenCL(TM) Applications, Intel(R) Media Server Studio, etc.) as appropriate.
