<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">The Bobcat-1 milestone is next week, on May 11th, 2023! Project team</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">plans for the 2023.2 Bobcat cycle should now be solidified.</span></div>

<div class="elementToProof"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">-------------------</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">Libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. Next</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">week, the release team will propose releases for any library which had</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">changes but has not been otherwise released since the 2023.1 Antelope</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">release.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">PTLs or release liaisons, please watch for these and give a +1 to</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">acknowledge them. If there is some reason to hold off on a release, let</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">us know that as well, by posting a -1. If we do not hear anything at all</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">by the end of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">NB: If one of your libraries is still releasing 0.x versions, start</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">thinking about when it will be appropriate to do a 1.0 version. The</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">version number does signal the state, real or perceived, of the library,</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">so we strongly encourage going to a full major version once things are</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family: "Courier New", monospace;">in a good and usable state.</span></div>
