Here's a draft schedule for the 6.1 cycle: 2021-07-13 Soft feature freeze. Only bug fixes after this point. 2021-07-20 Hard feature freeze. Tag rc0 2021-07-27 Tag rc1 2021-08-03 Tag rc2 2021-08-10 Tag rc3 2021-08-17 Release; or tag rc4 if needed 2021-08-24 Release if we needed an rc4
I don't think there's anything much we want to try to avoid dates-wise, so I just put the target release date in the middle of August and worked back from there. Any objections/suggestions ? thanks -- PMM
