<div>Hey folks,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The deadline for milestone #3 is August 31st (this is when we are tagging milestone #3). We then have until September 15th to stabilize the release and tag rc1. The release team branches occata at rc1, so if a feature doesn’t make rc1, its not making
newton. After rc1, any patches in master required for newton need to be backported into the stable/newton branch.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As far as bugs are concerned, we have a bit more time to release 3.0.0 because we use the cycle_trailing model. However, our m1/m2/m3/rc1/rc2 must be on schedule.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards</div>
