RE: [cdt-dev] CDT 4.0 Freeze Date

Er, oops, I confused my own dates... the 30th is the Monday not the Friday.

Yeah, build on the morning of Monday the 30th sounds right to me.

I was thinking we'd allow checkins on the 30th and do the build after that
(Monday morning?).  That way people have the weekend if the world blows up.
No one is going to be trying out a newly minted build on the weekend
anyway...

Being realistic, we all know "Freeze" is a state of mind. If I want a
change
bad enough, I can make it look like a bug fix by holding it up to the light
in a certain way. ;)

I would like to make a serious judgment on what work we have left at the
May
conference call and start tossing features that aren't done yet. To do
that,
I would prefer to stick with the end of April as the official feature
freeze
date just to make sure we have it in our minds that after that we'd better
be slowing down or the train isn't going to make the stop.

Using the build from the morning of April 30 as some kind of official
feature frozen build, if you need such a thing, makes sense to me.
