P45 bugs can simply be retargeted. The rest must go through the
"intergalactic" process which I will not describe here.
Essentially, Darth Vader is the release engineer and you need to
apologize to him in person ...

Steve can you clarify the process for various stages for retargeting

Hi all,
The next milestone M5, June 23, 2014 [RDP2], is an important one.
Essentially, we are shipping FX for 8u20 after this. There is a week
before the final FX ZBB date which is July 1, 2014, but we should not
be touching any code during this week. After July 1 ZBB, we are
stopping all development on FX 8u20 and starting on 8u40.
Here is the plan for M5:
May 26-30: Fix P123, fix or move P45 to 8u40
June 2-5: Fix P123, zero P45 targeted to 8u20
June 9-13: Fix P123, defer bugs that won't make it
June 16-20: Code freeze, ramp down rules, fix doc bugs
During the week June 16-20, the usual milestone rules will be in
effect and we are likely to be quite ruthless about any code
changes. We will likely only accept fixes for P12 critical bugs /
regressions.
Thanks to everyone for their hard work,
Steve and Kevin
