Hi Glen,

- Let's aim to get 1.4.1 out the door at the end of next week, i.e. July
> 18th (is that enough time, Nandana?).


I  think we have to check Sanka's input on this. He will be fixing the major
issue in policy.

- As always it's good to go through at least one RC so people can kick the
> tires, check the artifacts, etc.  So let's aim to get the RC out by Tuesday
> the 15th.


+1 for the RC.

thanks,
nandana
