Back in YVR we had the following process drafted on a whiteboard:

1. Enable master->stable cross-check
2. Release Oslo, make stable branches for Oslo
2.1 Converge constraints
3. liberty-3 / FF / soft requirements freeze
4. hard requirements freeze
5. RC1 / make stable branches for services
6. Branch requirements, disable cross-check
7. Unfreeze requirements

Is there anything new that makes this proposed process invalid ?

If not, since (3) is Thursday next week, that means we need to cover the
first 3 items in the coming week ?
