Because I scheduled the current Test Writing Day to take place on the
same day as the Monthly Maintenance, I will postpone test writing day
until next week.
Here is a Doodle poll to help choose the new date:

I will add this new date to the Evergreen community calendar by the
end of Friday this week.

Jason, do you think there will be much of a conflict with release
day if we hold off on merging any of the tests until after
tomorrow? The patches from the August test writing day weren't
merged until last week, and, I don't see why it would be a problem
waiting a few days to merge this batch.
For monthly releases, I doubt that it would be a huge deal. I don't
think the tests would normally get back ported to the release branches.
I just recall that 2.9.0 release day was a bit of a pain because people
kept pushing documentation commits after I had already started working
on the release.
I still think it would be a good idea to have test writing day or any
other day involving code or documentation to fall on days other than
release days.
It is tough enough to get releases together without the added
distractions.
(Particularly difficult for me since our release schedule seems to
fall on the day after my consortium's Executive and/or Membership
meetings, so I have a day full of meeting the day before the release.)
Cheers,
Jason
