[Rd] R 3.6.3 scheduled for February 29

2020-02-06 Thread Peter Dalgaard via R-devel
Full schedule is available on developer.r-project.org.

(The date is chosen to celebrate the 5th anniversary of R 1.0.0. Some 
irregularity may occur on the release day, since this happens to be a Saturday 
and the release manager is speaking at the CelebRation2020 event...)
