Development Focus
    -----------------
    
    
    Happy new
        year! The Yoga-2 milestone is next week, on January 6th, 2022.
     Yoga-related specs should now be finalized so that teams
        can move to
     implementation ASAP. Some teams observe specific
        deadlines on the
     second milestone (mostly spec freezes): please refer
        to
    
    
    
    General Information
    -------------------
    
    
    Libraries need to be released at least once per
        milestone period. Next
    week, the release team will propose releases for any
        library that has not
    been otherwise released since milestone 1. PTL's and
        release liaisons,
    please watch for these and give a +1 to acknowledge
        them. If there is
    some reason to hold off on a release, let us know that
        as well. A +1
    would be appreciated, but if we do not hear anything at
        all by the end
    of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed.
    
    
    Remember that non-library deliverables that follow the
    cycle-with-intermediary release model should have an
        intermediary
    release before milestone-2. Those who haven't will be
        proposed to switch
    to the cycle-with-rc model, which is more suited to
        deliverables that
    are released only once per cycle.
    
    
    Next week is also the deadline to freeze the contents
        of the final
    release. All new 'Yoga' deliverables need to have a deliverable file
    
    and need to have done a release by milestone-2.
    
    
    Changes proposing missing deliverables for inclusion in Yoga have been
    posted, so if you have
        one in your project team please update
        them with
     an actual release request before the milestone-2
        deadline if you plan
     on including that deliverable in Yoga, or -1 if you need one more cycle
     to be
        ready.
