A weekly email with call info goes out every Wednesday at noon ET to sakai-dev, sakai-qa, and cle-release-team.  We talk about changes that are coming in the future, release plans, blocker bugs, and are happy to discuss agenda items brought up by community members.

Mustansar,

As Sam says we won't be accepting bugs on the on the old skin to avoid splitting the resources we have available to get 2.9 completed.  That old skin was around for a while and should be pretty solid and hopefully you can fix the few little things that pop up.

This just one example of why we need community resources to get releases finished - if we wander forward with a "good beta" for too long we get version smear.  Hopefully 2.9 will move quickly toward release and we will have as few of these "Beta in production" situations as we can.
