Hi,

It is time again. If you have any questions regarding the release, please
ping this thread.

*THURSDAY 2020-03-26*: API adoption freeze started.
V8 will branch in one week for the upcoming Beta phase for Chrome *83*. On
the *2020-04-02* one of the latest Canaries will be selected to be the
branch point. This means we will roll this version into Chromium in order
to give them and Blink time to synchronize with the roll. Essentially this
will be a revert to an older version!
In order to make this synchronization as painless as possible for V8 and
Blink please don't make API changes which make the revert more difficult
and don't adopt API changes. When in doubt, ask hablich@ or vahl@.

*WEDNESDAY 2020-04-01*: Select backup candidate for branching
Decide if the latest Canary can be taken as a backup candidate for
branching. If this is not the case the Canary needs to be stabilized ASAP.

*THURSDAY 2020-04-02*: Create *8.3* branch
Create the *8.3* branch based on one of the latest/most stable Canaries.
The auto-roller is closed (maybe over the weekend). Keep in mind that this
means we are not integrating with Chromium (much less test coverage). If
you happen to work on an important fix, please make sure that the fix is on
8.3 too! See information on merging & patching for the details. Merge
approvers for this release are vahl@ (backup hablich@)

Latest *MONDAY 2020-04-06*: Back to normal and API adoption freeze is lifted
Auto-roller is running again and we are back to normal business.

Cheers,
 Lutz
