As such, to give OSSTest breathing room to do its testing I would like to ask committers to not checkin until the the 'e6fa63d' has cleared and then we can tag RC2 right away (and perhaps it be done before Wednesday!) Or if OSSTest has issues we have some time to figure it out. The tentative dates are: * Feature Freeze: 24th September 2014 * First RC: 24th October [Friday!] <==== =====> * RC2: Nov 12th * RC2 Test-day: Nov 13th * RC3: Nov 24th * RC3 Test-day: Nov 25th * Release: 10th December 2014 Thank you.
