Thanks a lot for making plans for that!

Does this apply to documentation fixes? We should be able to finish all
the doc in time for the RC but I'll give priority to my UI/coding work
over my documentation work.

This should work.

I'll be working with Simply Secure on September 3 and traveling on
September 4. So the timing of the release is not optimal for me as a
technical writing (but it's not something new).
I'll try to write the release notes before that and to be available on
September 5 to document last minute known issues. But don't count on me
on September 3-4.
