[U-Boot] [STATUS] RFC: stretch merge window?

[Wolfgang Denk]

Hi everybody...

The reorganization of the ARM custodian setup has caused some changes
to the workflow, and I wonder if we should allow for a longer merge
window?

What do you think about stretching the MW by another week (with or
without also shifting the release date) ?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

I would welcome a longer MW. I see no need for a release shift though. Just my 
0.02$.
 
Cheers,
Stefan

Got no issues one way or the other.  One more week is always better.

Good idea.  FWIW, though, official release dates don't mean much to me 
so I'll always agree to this sort of thing :)

The feedback was pretty clear: we stretch the MW by one week, i. e.
until Monday, September 28.

The schedule for the release (Nov 18) does not change.

Best regards,
