I encourage Jeff Law and Jakub Jelinek to review these schedules
for compiler related issues.

This is just a perfunctory review from the glibc perspective with
regard to base ABI and API issues in this core runtime.

2018-01-10 MASS REBUILD
- This date is ahead of the glibc release on 2018-02-01
  but after the 2018-01-01 ABI freeze date for glibc.
  Therefore you will be largely assured a stable ABI upon
  which to base Fedora, _but_ there is a vanishingly small
  chance you may need a mass rebuild or a targeted rebuild
  on 2018-02-01 if something has to be reverted.

2018-07-11 MASS REBUILD
- This date is ahead of the glibc release on 2018-08-01
  but after the 2018-07-01 ABI freeze date for glibc.

Otherwise the schedules look sensible from a glibc perspective.
We can drive new security, performance, and usability into the
distribution on these 6 month cycles.
