Hi,

Cyril Brulebois <ckb@???> (2019-05-03):
> The 3.14 bugfix release is due on the 14th of May, here's the schedule:
>
> * 2019-05-13: build and upload tentative 3.14 ISO image
> * 2019-05-14: Test and release 3.14


This has now been postponed by a week:

    Quarter         Soft Freeze     Merge Date      Release Date    Release         ESR
    Q2              2019-05-13      2019-05-20      2019-05-21      Firefox 67      Firefox 60.7 


(excerpt from <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar>)

So we'll align and switch our own calendar to:

* 2019-05-20: build and upload tentative 3.14 ISO image
* 2019-05-21: Test and release 3.14

> Usual manual testers: please tell me privately whether you're available
> to test the ISO on May 14 by 17:00 (Berlin/Paris time). During the last
> release cycle we've figured out what was taking so much time regarding
> the initial uploads + bittorrent sharing, so hopefully the image will
> indeed be available on the 13th (evening), rather than early the next
> day.
>
> Changes must have been merged by 10:00 (CEST) on the 13th.


Moving to:

* merging before 10:00 (CEST) on the 20th
* testing before 17:00 (CEST) on the 21th

> Please let me know if you have any questions or comments (cc's welcome).


That still holds. :)


Cheers,
