Hi everyone, as you probably noted, one of the significant changes in F27 release is the missing Alpha release. This is based on the "No More alphas" [1] Change. The schedule for F27 release [2] has been put together with the aim not to break any flow during the cycle and with intention to make observations what issues and changes in the flow this Change brings. There are also some minor changes in the schedule caused by sliding milestones for Beta GA and Final GA dates (Target & Rain dates). There were several discussions on mailing lists as well as on private level pointing to some issues related to these changes in scheduling of key milestones. Finally we have two proposals. One put together by my self [3] and the second one prepared by Adam [4]. These proposals are the same starting from "Beta Freeze" milestone but different for milestones preceding the "Beta Freeze". Basically the two proposals differ for these milestones: * Mass rebuild * Branching * Bodhi activation point In the group we had the discussion were no strong opinions whether these milestones need to be early in the release cycle or just before the "Beta Freeze". As such, I would like to open a discussion and collect some opinions on the timing of these key milestones. Any feedback or pros and cons are welcomed.
