Release schedule slip

[Breda McColgan <Breda McColgan Sun COM>]

Hi Jeff,

just noticed in the GNOME Summary today that the release schedule has
slipped. The two groups most affected by this slip are the writers and
translators, as you have kindly stated that "Translation and
documentation can continue". However, people in these groups may not
have heard about the slip if they are not on desktop-devel-list or if
they don't get the GNOME Summary.

Can you please copy gnome-doc-list gnome org and gnome-i18n gnome org on
all future announcements about the release schedule?


Thanks a million :)
Breda.
