There weren't too many of those, but you may consider it for the time period so the freeze isn't preventing improved content in the meantime. </div><div><br></div><div>Since we needed 3 months to migrate the other two guides (mid-Feb to mid-May), and this release is only 5.5 months, you should probably try either not to freeze or to migrate more quickly. </div><div><br></div><div>Just a consideration based on past experience -- you may have already found a way to migrate more content quickly.</div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Anne</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br><br><div>Hi Anne,<br><br></div><div>That's a good idea.

Guide team et al., how do you feel about requesting XML and RST for
patches while we're doing the migration rather than freezing the doc?<br><br></div>-Brian<br><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><span class=""><div dir="ltr"><div><div><br>If you happen to find yourself reviewing an XML Cloud Admin Guide patch in the next few weeks, please let the author know about the freeze and ask them to resubmit an RST patch when the conversion is finished.<br><br></div>Thanks!<span><font color="#888888"><br><br></font></span></div><span><font color="#888888">Brian<br></font></span></div>
