Welcome back to the release countdown emails! These will be sent at
major points in the Victoria development cycle, which should conclude
with a final release on October 16, 2020.

Development Focus
-----------------

At this stage in the release cycle, focus should be on planning the Victoria
development cycle, assessing Victoria community goals and approving Victoria
specs.

General Information
-------------------

Victoria is a 22 week development cycle, which is already underway. In case you
haven't seen it yet, please take a look over the schedule for this release:

By default, the team PTL is responsible for handling the release cycle and
approving release requests. This task can (and probably should) be delegated to
release liaisons. Now is a good time to review release liaison information for
your team and make sure it is up to date:

By default, all your team deliverables from the Ussuri release are continued in
the Victoria series with a similar release model. If you intend to drop a
deliverable, or modify its release model, please do so before the victoria-1
milestone by proposing a change to the deliverable file at:
