[Several vendor contacts in BCC.] For those that did not notice the website update adding the 11.2-RELEASE cycle schedule, I apologize for sending this to public lists this late. I thought I had done this, but apparently not. The 11.2-RELEASE release cycle will begin April 20, 2018. The schedule for the release cycle is: stable/11 slush: April 20, 2018 stable/11 freeze: May 4, 2018 BETA1 build starts: May 11, 2018 doc/ tree slush: May 12, 2018 BETA2 build starts: May 18, 2018 BETA3 build starts: May 25, 2018 [*] doc/ tree tag: May 26, 2018 releng/11.2 branch: June 1, 2018 RC1 build starts: June 1, 2018 stable/11 thaw: June 3, 2018 RC2 build starts: June 8, 2018 RC3 build starts: June 15, 2018 [*] RELEASE build starts: June 22, 2018 RELEASE announcement: June 27, 2018 11.1-RELEASE EoL: September 30, 2018 Branch EoL: September 30, 2021 [*] - If needed The schedule is also available on the Project website at: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.2R/schedule.html As a reminder, the code "slush" is not a hard freeze on the tree and does not require formal approval from re@, however we ask that you refrain from adding new features, and focus on fixing existing issues. The code "freeze" is the point at which all commits to stable/11 will require explicit approval from re at . If you are aware of any problems in stable/11, please let re@ know as soon as possible. Additionally, if vendors have driver updates that are planned to be included in 11.2-RELEASE, please ensure the drivers are updated in head (preferably as soon as possible, to catch any issues), and merged to stable/11 following the minimum 3-day MFC timeframe.
