Hi all. Having served as Release Manager for the project a couple times, I'd like to ask y'all to think about the dates we've chosen and have stuck to the last few years for our releases. I know they are somehow aligned with our regular yearly meetings, and one each semester. But my experience says: - We all want to implement things we discuss in the Hackfest, but the release is too close. So we either push too late in the cycle, or need to cool down our brains/ideas for 'after the release in two months'. - The other scenario, which I suffered a lot recently (and will soon) is summer holidays in the northern hemisphere: you're all out when we should be pushing the riskier things to have enough time to fix things, and we end up rushing things... on the last third of the cycle. I don't have a proposal right now, but wanted to say my perception is the dates are not ideal as-is. And hear back from you all.
