Hi,
The QEMU 8.2 release cycle has begun. I am merging qemu.git pull
requests for this release. You do not need to CC me on pull requests
because I am monitoring qemu-devel.
The proposed schedule is as follows:
2023-08-22 Beginning of development phase
2023-11-14 Soft feature freeze. Only bug fixes after this point. All feature changes must be already in a sub maintainer tree and all pull requests from submaintainers must have been sent to the list by this date.
2023-11-21 Hard feature freeze. Tag rc0
2023-11-28 Tag rc1
2023-12-05 Tag rc2
2023-12-12 Tag rc3
2023-12-19 Release; or tag rc4 if needed
2023-12-26 Release if we needed an rc4
Please let me know if these dates are inconvenient. I may adjust the
last date depending on my availability at the end of 2023.
Add the following milestone to issues that need to be tracked for this
release:
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/milestones/10
You can update the changelog here:
https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/8.2
The release schedule is here:

Thanks,
Stefan

Up to you, but my personal preference when doing the end-of-year
releases was to move the cycle a week or so earlier, because
it's pretty common that we need the rc4 and it's better not
to be trying to do the final release in the middle of the
holiday season (especially bearing in mind that releases
require not just your availability but also Mike Roth's).

That sounds good. I will bring the dates forward by one week.
