[ptl][release] RC1 Deadline Tomorrow

Hey everyone,

Just a reminder that tomorrow, September 24, is the RC1 deadline for the Victoria cycle.

If you have any cycle-based deliverables, there should have been a patch proposed earlier this week. If your project is ready, and if you've merged any final critical patches for Victoria, please +1 that patch so the release team knows it is safe to proceed.

If you are working on any final patches, please update the release patch as soon as those merge to point to the commit hash for the tag and branch. After RC1 and the stable/victoria branch is created, any additional bugfixes will need to merge to the master branch first, then be backported to stable/victoria.

Thanks, Sean
