Liam, et al.
The misunderstanding is mostly my fault. I read tomorrow in Liam's
email this morning, so thought it meant Wednesday, and not today.
This is another reason for adding things like this to the calendar,
'cause I checked the calendar and it was not there. It is there, now.
Cheers,
Jason

Hi all,
Just to add some clarification on the dates, test-writing day is
scheduled for today, November 17 and the point release is scheduled
for tomorrow, November 18.
I clarified the dates in IRC earlier when I realized there was
confusion on the dates, but I neglected to send a follow-up email to
the lists.
Liam, I don't know how you want to proceed on re-scheduling or not,
but I think it's fine to continue today.

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
