    We are currently considering the following dates as our freeze

    Is it possible to adopt ISO8601 dates like YYYY-MM-DD please (to avoid
    heart attacks) ?

    Hi Paul,

    These dates are in the past, was it intended for the dates to be in
    Janruay, February, and March of 2023 instead of 2022?

    He sent an email with the corrected dates.
    Debian release occurs every 2 years.
    The last release one was last year.
    The next one will be next year.

    These dates look wrong by one year... (or are we already in Milestone
    3 phase now???).

    Do you think these phases are so short that they are 1 day each? :)

    That's already done?
    Or in Decembre, in three days?
    Or, most likely, 2023?

    Hi,

    OOC, isn't that a bit "too short"? We started to work again in August
    2021, it'll be less than two years until the freeze.

    I'm fine with that, but I wonder if we shouldn't keep with a bit larger timelines.

    Cheers!

    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.

    2023-01-12 - Milestone 1 - Transition and toolchain freeze
    2023-02-12 - Milestone 2 - Soft Freeze
    2023-03-12 - Milestone 3 - Hard Freeze - for key packages and
    packages without autopkgtests
    To be announced - Milestone 4 - Full Freeze

    On behalf of the Release Team,

    Hi,

    OOC, isn't that a bit "too short"? We started to work again in August
    2021, it'll be less than two years until the freeze.


    Less than 1 year to go to milestone 1 starts in January.

    Ok. Debian has been releasing versions every 2 years for a long time.
    I was looking at the site here to remember the dates.
    It is a cycle that is being continued.

    I always have been under the impression it was around 2.5 years between releases, but indeed, this impression was false.

    Thanks!
