hi :) Toma has noted that he won't be available to draft the 4.5 schedule. This is something that needs to get done. Here's a draft based on the 4.3 schedule to get us started with:
April 26th, 2009: Soft Feature Freeze May 18th, 2009: Hard Feature Freeze May 19th, 2009: Message Freeze. May 19th, 2009: Tag KDE 4.5 Beta 1 May 26th, 2009: Release KDE 4.5 Beta 1 June 2nd, 2009: Documentation/Handbook Freeze June 2nd, 2009: Tag KDE 4.5 Beta 2 June 9th, 2009: Release KDE 4.5 Beta 2 June 23rd, 2009: Artwork and Bindings Freeze June 23rd, 2009: Tag KDE 4.5 RC 1 June 30th, 2009: Release KDE 4.5 RC 1 .. RC as needed .. July 28th, 2009: Tag KDE 4.5 August 4th, 2009: Release KDE 4.5 The main difference being this and the 4.3 schedule is two weeks less spent in beta. In part this would be because we're publishing the schedule so late in the cycle, and in part motivated by my experience that the beta cycles are pretty long as it is. There's also only two weeks between beta 1 and beta 2, more in line with the more aggressive beta release schedule. Since this really isn't my area of forte, input is quite welcome :) -- Aaron J.
