Release Schedule
Next Deadline: Enhancements Freeze, Sept. 9th
Make sure to add your feature to the Enhancements Sheet as soon as you're ready, and no later than Sept. 9th. Note that the PRR team wants your Production Review questionnaires by Sept. 2nd. At this time, we have zero tracked enhancements, so at least some of you are holding back.
The cherry-pick deadline for the next set of patch releases is Sept. 10, for a probable release on Sept. 15.
