Thanks to everybody who helped with getting QEMU 2.0 released. The traditional reward for a job well done is another job, which means we should probably work out what the release schedule for 2.1 is going to be.
We started 2.1's development phase on 17th April, which means that for a standard 3 month release we're looking at mid to late July release. (Of course if we stick to 3 month releases then the slippage on 2.0 means we'll only have 3 releases this year, not 4; do we care?) I felt we were a bit too aggressive in the schedule this time around, and didn't really leave enough hard-freeze time for producing, testing and stabilizing the release candidates. I think we should probably aim for something more like what 2.0 actually ended up with, rather than our proposed dates (see http://wiki.qemu.org/Planning/2.0). Thoughts? thanks -- PMM
