GNOME 2.7/2.8 Proposed Schedule



Good morning everyone,

Welcome to GNOME 2.7 - it's fun-crazy-hack-time again! :-)

We're trying something slightly different with the schedule this time, to
see if we can push back the freezes a little bit while still having a safe
and stable final release. Given that we've had a good run of high quality,
timely releases (at least internally), it's worth a try.

Remember that the schedule is *not* final, it's proposed here for your input
before we lock it down for good.

The Proposed Schedule is up on the 2.7 start page [1], and is accompanied by
a BRAND NEW webcal version [2] for you to subscribe to in Evolution 1.5 (and
various other calendar clients). The 2.7 start page also includes links to
helpful information related to the release, such as module lists for each
suite, testing guides, how to contact the release team, and so on...
