I need to make everyone aware of some upcoming PTO I have scheduled as
it will impact the timing of this merge window's for-next branch inclusions.
My family and I are moving into a new home at the end of this month. As
my wife is a public school teacher, she can't really take time off for
moving, but I can, so I have. I'm scheduled to start my PTO on August
30th, so that means there are only 12 working days left between now and
when I start my PTO.
As is typical for me, I will likely check my email as I can even while
on PTO. However, what's not typical, is that I will be moving my entire
home network and switching Internet providers. That little wrinkle
means I may be entirely offline for longer than I would like. I will
prepare for the worst by having my for-next branch ready to go and and
pull requests submitted to Linus prior to shutting down my network (the
merge window might already be open by the time I shut down, or it might
not, but regardless, I'll have my pull request in either way).
Fortunately, the merge window and the first -rc will be happening while
I'm down for the most part.
I am not scheduled to return back to work until Sept. 18th. We might be
as far in as -rc2 by then. I'll notify Linus of this ahead of time, and
I'll prioritize processing of backlogged -rc items once I return.
Thanks for your understanding as I do all the stuff that needs to be
done when we move into the house.
