Colleagues, 
   The release activity schedule has been drafted, commented upon and accepted.   The TCC would like to take a moment to draw your attention to a few important milestones for the 2.8 release: 

* 21 September 2010:	Code Freeze @ 23:59 UTC.   The 2.8.x branch will be created, alpha tags will be produced every two weeks on TUESDAYS and test plans are in progress or complete.
* 02 November 2010:	Beta tags begin on two week cycle, test plans are due, string freeze date & help documentation changes have been made.   Translations begin.   
* 30 November 2010:	Outstanding bugs in JIRA are reviewed on project by project basis. Bugs that are no longer issues are closed, any bug that must be resolved for the 2.8 release (ie a Blocker) is marked as 				such and tagged correctly in JIRA.
* 11 January 2011:	Release Candidate tags begin
* 25 January 2011: 	Translations for the 2.8.0 release are checked in and merged to the 2.8 branch
* 15 February 2011: 	Release Readiness Decision Point: The Sakai 2 Technical Coordination Committee will vote on whether or not the release is ready.
* 1 March 2011: 		Sakai 2.8 is released by the Sakai Foundation

A more detailed schedule is available on Confluence at http://confluence.sakaiproject.org//x/8RkhB.    

All the best, 
Megan
