Обсуждение: Timetable for 7.3 beta

With beta starting September 1, what time table do we want to have?  Is
feature freeze September 1?  When do we want to package up the beta1
tarball?

I will try to have the HISTORY/release.sgml file ready for September 1.


I am attaching the open items list.

Since September 1 is a Sunday, how about giving us until the end of the 
day to get stuff in? :-) That gives everyone most of the weekend to 
finish up whatever they need to.
