    Dear all,

    We are currently considering the following dates as our freeze
    dates. If you are aware of major clashes of these dates with anything
    we depend on please let us know. We also like to stress again that we
    really would like to have a short Hard and Full Freeze (counting in
    weeks, rather than months), so please plan accordingly. If serious
    delays turn up during any of the Freeze steps, we rather (partially or completely) thaw bookworm again than staying frozen for a long time.

    2022-01-12 - Milestone 1 - Transition and toolchain freeze
    2022-02-12 - Milestone 2 - Soft Freeze
    2022-03-12 - Milestone 3 - Hard Freeze - for key packages and
    packages without autopkgtests
    To be announced - Milestone 4 - Full Freeze

    On behalf of the Release Team,
    Paul

    are confused, sorry for the noise.]
