This is a timeline for preparing the release of rc3. Noone seems to have had any objections since I checked it into svn, and it still seems to make sense now that I've slept on it, so I guess it's perfect. If not, please correct it. 28 Feb all udeb changes should be complete all updated kernels must be in testing 1 Mar arrive at final go/no-go list for which udebs will be updated in rc3 2 Mar rc3 udebs synced to testing (some rc2 images may break) 2 Mar debs that were waiting on rc3 should reach testing now (parted, debootstrap) finish all needed changes to debian-installer package (manual, build system) begin debian-installer package test build 3 Mar merge updates to sarge branch of svn repository, where necessary 7 Mar debian-installer test build finishes (approximate) test period 14 Mar final deadline for emergency udeb changes for rc3 (optional) begin final debian-installer package build (optional) 18 Mar final debian-installer package build complete (optional) 19 Mar final netinst and businesscard CD builds begin full CD builds 20 Mar final testing 22 Mar web site updates 23 Mar rc3 release -- see shy jo
