Dear RIOTers,

for the next release, we've decided to shorten the merge window for
"high impact"-changes.

Previously, we've tried hard to finish up even complex changes (like the
just released SPI rework) in time for a release. That lead to code
touching many configurations but getting only two weeks of testing.
We've been lucky so far regarding unexpected regressions, but would like
to be more certain that a release meets our quality expectaions.

So for the upcoming 2017.04 release, the schedule is as follows:

- the merge window for "high impact" changes ends on March 10th.
- regular feature freeze is on April 14th.
- planned release date is on April 28th.

The exact definition of "high impact" is up to the maintainers.

Keep on hacking!
Kaspar
