Release Schedule

Tentative schedule, not yet finalized. I guess we should aim for release in early August (allowing space for slippage without running into KVM Forum). This puts softfreeze date too early though; needs rethink.

2015-05-12 Beginning of development phase
2016-06-14 Soft feature freeze. All features

should have patches on the list by this date; major features should have initial code committed.

2016-07-05 Hard feature freeze. Tag -rc0,

only bug fixes committed after this point

Known issues

Please list all patch series or bugs which need to be fixed for the release here. That way I can be sure I don't miss any when I'm rolling release candidates.
