[ajax@nwnk.net: 7.1 release status and 7.2 plans]
----- Forwarded message from Adam Jackson <ajax@nwnk.net> -----
The release process and schedule worked pretty well this time around, so
here's a proposed schedule for 7.2:
Branch nomination for 7.2: September 15, 2006
Branch selection for 7.2: September 29, 2006
7.2RC1: October 6, 2006
7.2RC2: October 27, 2006
7.2RC3: November 10, 2006
7.2 Release: November 17, 2006
Ok, so looking at this and comparing it to the etch release, it looks
pretty certain that we'll be shipping 7.1 with etch. We'll have to be very
careful about what sorts of things we backport to 7.1 for the final
release, but as it stands, I think now that it's looking like the RC bugs
are squashed in 7.0, we should focus on getting 7.1 in to Debian (after 7.0
migrates to testing) and then polishing 7.1 as much as possible for etch.
As it stands, I want to begin pushing our remaining patches upstream and
clean them out. I also plan to put 7.1 in to experimental prior to putting
it in unstable, to give us some breathing room to fix minor issues that
need fixing.
