Yeah, that's what I meant with "etc"... let's make this: - August 2023: prepare draft, aim to have it ready and voted upon by August 31 the latest (preferrably earlier) - September 2023: public review period (30 days) - October 2023: another public review period, if needed; otherwise, get comittee specification ready and voted upon - October (maybe November, if we're running late) 2023: virtio 1.3 released The most important dates are feature freeze on Jul 1 and change freeze on Aug 1, I guess; for the rest, we depend on whether people are out on PTO, which kind of feedback we get, etc. -- but as long as we release 1.3 in 2023, I'll be happy enough. > > > >> - by September/October 2023: have the final 1.3 spec ready, voted upon, >> and released >> - virtio-next can be merged into mainline, and we continue with business >> as usual >> >> Thoughts?
