Xen 4.20 release schedule proposal (v2)



Hello everyone,

Please look at the updated version ( the previous version can be found here [1] ) of Xen 4.20 release schedule.

** Proposed option: Wed Feb 26, 2025 **
 (~ +8 months from Xen 4.19 release)

- Last posting date          Fri Nov 29, 2024 (+8 weeks from now)

Patches adding new features are expected to be posted to the mailing
list by this date, although perhaps not in their final version.

                             
- Feature freeze             Fri Dec 20, 2024 (+3 weeks from Last posting date)

Patches adding new features should be committed by this date.
Straightforward bugfixes may continue to be accepted by maintainers.

- Code freeze                Fri Jan 17, 2025 (+4 weeks from Feature freeze)

Bugfixes only.

- Hard code freeze           Fri Feb 07, 2025 (+3 weeks from Code freeze)

Bugfixes for serious bugs (including regressions), and low-risk fixes only.

- Final commits              Fri Feb 21, 2025 (+2 weeks from Hard code freeze)

Branch off staging-4.20.

- Release                    Wed Feb 26, 2025


Please don't hesitate to provide your feedback.

If there are no objections, I plan to update the Wiki page Xen_Project_X.YY_Release_Notes to make it easier to find our final schedule ( especially for the people who aren't following xen-devel mailing list ). As an additional benefit, it will also be accessible via SUPPORT.md (in the wiki at https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable-staging/support-matrix.html).

Thanks and have a good end of the week!

Best regards,
 Oleksii
