[xml] Entering freeze for libxml2-2.9.8

[Daniel Veillard <veillard redhat com>]

  Hi all,

 so we are starting the freeze for the next release of libxml2. I have
tagged the release candidate 1 in Git and pushed a signed tarball and
rpms to the usual place:

   ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/

 I updated my machine with the release candidate, it would be good if
other interested people could also start testing those, especially on
different operating systems and compilers.

  I think next step will be to make a second release candidate at the
end of the week, then if everything looks fine we can push the final release
in a week or so,

   please give it a try,

    thanks,

Daniel
