Considering the "Side Tag Builds Deadline" is new milestone since F21 and since it happened almost 2 months after Change Proposals Submission Deadline (System Wide Changes) during F21 period, the one week period (which is even very tight to fulfill the full change procedure, although not impossible) is simply too short. > > > That being said, I'll bring it up with FESCo (CCed) whether we could > shorten the branch->freeze period by a week and add another week before > the side-tag and mass-rebuild dates.
