Focus
-----

Feature work and major refactoring should be well under way as we pass
the second milestone.

The deadline for non-client library releases is R-5 (19 Jan). We do not
grant Feature Freeze Extensions for any libraries, so that is a hard
freeze date. Any feature work that requires updates to non-client
libraries should be prioritized so it can be completed by that time.

General Notes
-------------

Project teams should identify contributors who have had a significant
impact this cycle but who would not qualify for ATC status using the
regular process because they have not submitted a patch. Those names
should be added to the governance repo for consideration as ATC for the
future. The list needs to be approved by the TC by 20 Jan to qualify for
contributor discount codes for the event. In order to appear on the
agenda to be discussed, the proposals need to happen by 5 Jan.

Important Dates
---------------

Extra ATCs deadline: 5 Jan
Final release of non-client libraries: 19 Jan
Ocata 3 Milestone, with Feature and Requirements Freezes: 26 Jan
