[WG: Sakai QA] [Management] Sakai 2.9 Release Schedule Posted

[Nate Angell]

Given the change in Mailsender status, I'm wondering if community
members or central teams are thinking to address outstanding issues
related to the tool as a part of its "promotion"?

>        • The 2.9 "NewPortal" (https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-19813) will be the default portal for 2.9 (excluding the new chat, until/unless load tested)
