Hi,

in order to reflect the current 0.88 Feature Situation the 0.88 schedule 
[1] has been adjusted. Basically the API/ABI, Feature, UI and String 
Freeze have been delayed by one week. Features are accepted one more 
week, too. The Hard code Freeze stays the 15th of March and the final 
release date is still valid.

These are the new dates:

* Feature Acceptance - Jan 18
Acceptance of the features following the Features/Policy [2]. Features 
for the 0.88 release has to be proposed until that date.

* API/ABI Freeze - Jan 25
API/ABI Freeze for 0.87.x Developer APIs should be frozen at this point. 
If your Feature does add new API it has to be landed before that date 
(or at least the relevant part of the code).

* Feature Freeze - Feb 01
No new features will be accepted for this release period. "Feature" 
should be interpreted as "Functionality" or "Ability". Bug fixes of 
existing features are not affected.

* UI Freeze - Feb 15
No UI changes may be made without approval from the release-team and 
notification to the documentation list.

* String Freeze - Mar 01
No string changes may be made without confirmation from the localization 
team and notification to both the release team and the documentation list.


Please be aware of these dates and coordinate your work accordingly. If 
you have a Feature containing API changes you should land that first. 
Smaller UI changes that are no Features can still be done after the 
Features have been landed.

Regards,
    Simon
