[Qemu-devel] [RFC] QEMU 1.2.0 Release Schedule

[Anthony Liguori]

Summary: GA on September 1st, shorten feature freeze to 2.5 weeks.

We've discussed a lot in the past moving to a quarterly release cycle.  More 
frequent releases will allow distributions to more easily ship newer versions of 
QEMU.

Here's the schedule (also available on the wiki):
