Hi! As time flows really fast, we are getting closer to another important milestones for Fedora 19 [1] on 2013-03-12 (as agreed by FESCo): * Feature Freeze -- Planning & Development Ends * Branch Freeze -- Branch Fedora 19 from Rawhide
Feature Freeze is in one week from now, please keep in mind that it's the time when your features has to be in *substantially complete and in a testable state!*. See the Feature Freeze policy [2].
Please update your feature pages - with the best percentage done "estimate" - 80%+ and last updated field (do not update Features List, it's automatically generated now). If you're *at risk* of not making the Feature Freeze, please update your feature page accordingly and let me know. The community can help a lot, communication is the key.
For Branch Freeze Policy, take a look on [3] and also on the list of orphaned packages and packages that have failed to build since Fedora 17, as these are going to be blocked on Branch date [4].
The full Fedora 19 schedule moved to a new, program manager neutral place, see [5]. Please, let me know if you need any change in the schedule.
Thanks Jaroslav
