Dear RIOTers,

due to holidays, testing was a bit delayed and so is the release.
I would like to do the next release candidate today.

There are still a few open isuses that I want addressed and backported before:

https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/milestone/23

They are all marked with `backporting-needed` and would need some help to finalize the review.
If you can help on one of the open issues your help is welcomed.

Cheers,
Gaëtan - @cladmi

Dear RIOTers,

I created the release branch https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/tree/2018.07-branch for the release. It means that if you want to have some PRs included for the release they should be backported this week.
Remember to put the `Backporting-needed` label on the PRs when necessary.

Please update the milestone of your issues and PRs to the next release if they are not going to be included in this one.


I opened the testing issue for following release testing: https://github.com/RIOT-OS/Release-Specs/issues/65
Please assign yourself on the tasks you will take care of.

I tried to list all merged PRs and closed Issues for this release in the release milestone https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/milestone/23?closed=1
I still need to update it with the latest merged ones.


I started a first draft for the release notes: https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/pull/9566 Please contribute what you want included in the release notes directly to my branch or in the comments.

Thank you in advance for your work.

Cheers,
Gaëtan - @cladmi

Dear RIOTers,

summer is already there and July release 2018.07 is coming.
I will be taking care of the release process for the first time and I welcome your feedback.

First the important dates are fixed as follows:

- preliminary/soft feature freezefor high impact features:    July 16th, 2018
- final/hard feature freeze: July 23th, 2018
- final release date: When tests run successfully, hoping at the 1st of August to use the July 31th Hack'N'Ack for finalizing.

Please contact me if you have features you would really want to have, and if you think they would be ready for the release.

On your side, can you also please check you open pull requests and issues and update the release milestone to the current or the next release to help focus the efforts.
Also remember to update and rebase your PRs that you want review for.


My objective for this release, is to get and publish results of automated tests for more boards than previous releases.
Some automated tests have never been run or worked on some platforms.
I think that giving a reference state of the test results would help the effort of improving automated testing.


Happy hacking!

Cheers,
Gaëtan - @cladmi
