That being the case, we now enter a "deep freeze" period. This means: only release blocking bugs, and fixes to documentation, should appear on the emacs-25 branch now. It also means that: 1. If a bug is important and not currently a release blocker, please lobby for it to be made one. That is, for it to be marked as a blocker to Bug #19759, the release ticket for 25.1. 2. If a bug is currently a release blocker list shouldn't be, please also make it known here. I have a feeling we've accumulated quite a number of such issues. 3. If you another change you'd like committed beyond this freeze, please a= sk here and we can discuss a special exemption. After all the blocking issues are fixed, we'll cut our first release candid= ate and see if it's good enough for delivery. After we make one that fails to create new blockers, we'll call it golden. I'm naming Eli today as our release manager for this release, meaning he has my blessing to manage the blocking list without confirmation from me. Thus,= if you have a bug you'd like fixed, either he or I can give you the yay/nay. Nicolas will be our release engineer, and will prepare a few more pretests leading up to the release candidate(s). The first order of business for next week should be to reduce our blocking issues to just those that really fixing in this release. When evaluating, please consider whether or not you could live with such an issue in 25.1; if you could, it might not be necessary to hold up the release for it. Onward to 25.1! =2D-=20 John Wiegley GPG fingerprint =3D 4710 CF98 AF9B 327B B80F http://newartisans.com 60E1 46C4 BD1A 7AC1 4BA2 --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGcBAEBCgAGBQJXJGdQAAoJEMFE2PTxn+YwoCML/jaG7hGSrsuLmhgdPawQfNpb +9g9EwVCtl877TtBtQoZFJ97C7Vwbu0T2czL1Dcj66gpkzf4TR73fhXQCp3cBREF d4ZpoQ7mKuagXVulzq2iU9oLYNViOT7gimFgGcufaAv2v/uhf2tAa3aLfM5EqvSO Frh2yOhQ4h1HTvjTOi6aKic/4T814dllUWqpeixuvmkK+0yEYwqxaMkO5/snd+BF Qp9lMakPkDYdFWjvtGEZXP5mCnvP/D49ZRcOkepvkz3DDzQez43+ThmOPvBjZgpN Z3sKci4OCSw1zmQ5hXNQgBbs6d+KOO6vJlcjtheo6V/F15IortiSa+AukqVW0jDw 6p06aMGfUgdKV12Yo6qhub1UfOLW8lis3zNAlMEgnsR886GrX/Wbj0zIN5LxKeus kA6F7IRZfbP8gHpiFXfEDsduEBd48ymdyHWzDa0VILlJJQ60qzdnFZf4CT/PkLyU QvGISxQmXVjif/Vr7sB09a9QgORoFxEEppjVPgMnzw== =Zmsd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
