We have finished our stabilization, and are generating the 8u20-b03
(milestone M2) build.
Since "Lambda Day" has now become "Lambda Month" (see Steve's earlier
e-mail), there is no reason to leave the repo frozen, so the 8u20 dev
repo is now open for normal business for post-M2 changes.
No additional approvals are needed to push. Back to the usual review rules.

As a reminder: We are approaching the M2 freeze as described in #5
below. All approved (see #4) changesets for the M2 milestone build
should be pushed by 11:00 PM Pacific time on Sunday, Feb 23.

Hi OpenJFX committers,
After this coming Monday's FX build, which will go into 8u20-b02, we
will start ramping down for our M2 milestone build (aka 8u20-b03).
This particular milestone is important for the embedded platform. As
a result, you will need to observe the following rules for any commit.
1) Sunday, Feb 16 at 11:00 pm Pacific time: All planned changes for
b02 should be in (our test build is scheduled to start at 11pm that
day). The usual rules apply for changesets pushed prior to that time.
2) All changesets that are pushed after 11:00 pm Pacific time on
Sunday, Feb 16 will need additional scrutiny to go in. In addition to
your normal reviewer you must get a "+1" from one of the following,
even if you would normally do a post-commit review:
Daniel Blaukopf
Steve Northover
Kevin Rushforth
Lisa Selle
3) Monday, Feb 17: We will do our usual "(In)Sanity Testing" and
then hand off the bits to release engineering for 8u20-b02.
4) Week of Feb 17 - 14: Bug fixes can go in subject to the extra
approval noted above, but please hold off making any risky changes
until after M2.
5) Sunday, Feb 23 at 11:00 pm Pacific time: We will do a soft
freeze, during which time we will be locked except for critical
issues discovered during testing, for b03 (milestone M2).
6) Monday, Feb 24: We will do our usual "(In)Sanity Testing", with
extra emphasis on testing anything that changed after b02, and then
hand off the bits to release engineering for 8u20-b03.
7) I will send a subsequent announcement as to when the repo is "open
for normal business".
Thank you.
