[wtp-dev] Exact timing of our 7/22 RC2 build?

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We are scheduled to produce RC2 on 7/22
(this Friday). 

I've heard the next version of JEM will
not be available until 7/22. 
(This is, technically VE 1.1, and JEM
is just riding along for the ride). 

We are currently using JEM from 6/23,


I would like to advocate we immediately
move up to the I-7/15 JEM version
and then on Friday try to wait until
the final version of JEM is declared on 7/22  before spinning our

RC2 on 7/22, which is likely to put
us available on 7/23, especially on Istanbul time :)

There are not actually any changes planned
or known for JEM for any of these 
builds, so this is mostly about build
hygiene and sanity checking that all is 
still unchanged as expected. 

If anyone has any concerns about this
plan, please let us know. 

[BTW, VE lead has suggested in future
releases they will plan to build JEM separately, 
so JEM can become final before all of
VE becomes final].
