Hi!

zimoun <zimon.toutoune@gmail.com> skribis:

Works for me!

Do we want to merge ‘staging’ before the release, though?

+1!  We’ve accumulated a serious backlog on guix-patches.

I don’t think anything can be done for this release; I believe
resolution of #43591 will have to wait until after the release
(core-updates).

> The proposed coming timeline is:

>  - freeze starting the Oct. 26th
>  - last round for testing all over the week
>  - unfreeze the Oct. 29th and then create the branch
>  - minor bug fixes and all the papeword around (NEWS, blog, etc.)
>  - release Nov. 6th.

Overall LGTM, but could you clarify what you mean by “freeze” on
Oct. 26–29?  No “important” changes to ‘master’, including to the
manual, is that correct?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
